How to get around insecure warning when using dot (.) character in a regex

Question

I have a regex like below to split text into equal parts but qie displays this warning:  line 1 col 48 - insecure '.'. 

var partsArray = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.match(/.{1,6}/g);

The above code is valid and runs successfully.  How can I get arround this warning so that I can see if the rest of the code has valid syntax?

Comments

I just tried using the /*jshint regexp: false */ option and I get the following warning:

Bad option value.
Bad option: 'false'.

Answer 1

You can also trun off the inspection using:

/*jshint regexp: false */
var test = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.match(/.{1,6}/g);

Answer 2

Replace this:

var partsArray = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.match(/.{1,6}/g);

With this:

var partsArray = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.match(/[\w\W]{1,6}/g);
