Comment #2 on issue 2712 by [email protected]: slice hangs
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=2712
So if the spec has a bug then that's OK???? Really? That's your
answer? "That's just JavaScript for you...."
I get that this is an obscure bug, but your response is lazy and
ambivalent !!!
I also don't think it's the same as for(;;) since anyone who looks at the
for statement will see an infinite loop. If someone runs into the slice
bug, it could take them quite a long time to figure out what's happening.
Imagine:
var o = {
length: 0
};
Now somewhere else in the code:
length = x.length - 1; // this bug makes it = -1
Then somewhere else in the code:
var a = [].slice.call(o, 0); // this SHOULD return an empty array NOT HANG
THE PROGRAM
This is vastly different than for(;;;).
