Split as set

[edgore]

Does anyone know when "as set" got added to split? The dictionary says that Split hasn't changed since 2.8.1, but I just had something fail on a server that was running 5.something because I had a script that used it. Upgrading the server to 6.1 fixed it, so I am assuming that this is a recent addition that the documentation has not caught up with completely.

Being an addition, "as set" shouldn't break any older usage. What was the syntax throws an error, and what was the error?

It didn't break an old usage - I noticed it in the dictionary when I was working on something (and wondered why I had not been using it all along, since the dictionary said split had not changed since 2.8.1) and used it in something new that I was working on - when I deployed it to the server the new code blew up at the word "as", since the server was running 5.something. I am just curious to know when it was added, so I know which version of LC Server is required to run the new code.

I think you're right, that came much later than 2.8.1. You might consider filing a bug report for that Dictionary entry.
