Spread operator requries --es-staging in v5.3.0 #4366

Closed

Description

@elmigranto

Changelog and official ES6 Support page states that Spread operator is supported without any runtime flags by >= 5.x.x. However, I get SyntaxError while using it without --es-staging flag. For example:

$ node -e 'var f = function (...parts) {};'
[eval]:1
var f = function (...parts) {};
                  ^^^

SyntaxError: Unexpected token ...
    at Object.exports.runInThisContext (vm.js:53:16)
    at Object.<anonymous> ([eval]-wrapper:6:22)
    at Module._compile (module.js:398:26)
    at node.js:592:27
    at nextTickCallbackWith0Args (node.js:433:9)
    at process._tickCallback (node.js:362:13)

I'm on OS X with node 5.3.0 installed via homebrew and its default config (AFAIK, it uses https://nodejs.org/dist/v5.3.0/node-v5.3.0.tar.gz), here's my process.versions:

{ http_parser: '2.6.0',
  node: '5.3.0',
  v8: '4.6.85.31',
  uv: '1.8.0',
  zlib: '1.2.8',
  ares: '1.10.1-DEV',
  icu: '56.1',
  modules: '47',
  openssl: '1.0.2e' }

    @elmigranto That is not the Spread operator, those are called Rest parameters.
