[haXe] Neko lastIndexOf seems wrong?

[Asger Ottar Alstrup]

Hi,

I tried to use

        var test = "c:\\great\\stuff";
        trace("Found " + test.lastIndexOf("\\", 0));

in Neko. The result is surprisingly -1.

That prompted me to have a look at the code for the Neko version of
String.lastIndexOf, which reads:

    public function lastIndexOf( str : String, pos ) {
        untyped {
            var last = -1;
            if( pos == null )
                pos = 0;
            while( true ) {
                var p = try __dollar__sfind(this.__s,last+1,str.__s) catch(
e : Dynamic ) null;
                if( p == null || p > pos )
                    return last;
                last = p;
            }
            return null;
        }
    }


The documentation for Neko sfind says:

  int $sfind(src : string, pos : int, pat : string)
  Return the first position starting at pos in src where pat was found.
Return null if not found. Error if pos is outside src bounds.

Am I wrong, or is this code is broken?

Regards,
Asger
