Description Vladimir Riha 2012-07-20 09:20:49 UTC 
Maybe should be ENHANCEMENT, not sure if this is planned/supposed to work


/**
 * @return {Date} Some date
 */
function foo() {
    var a = new Date();
    return a;
}

var e = foo();
e.


Completion for "e." should offer items for Date object. I've tried it with/without the JSDoc, no difference

Comment 1 Eccenux 2012-08-29 12:33:51 UTC 
It should be "@returns" (note the "s" at the end). But it does work for me in 7.2 with and without "s".

Comment 3 Vladimir Riha 2012-11-21 09:06:11 UTC 
Is there any update? This would really help with proper code completion.

Comment 5 Tomas Mysik 2012-11-21 09:11:27 UTC 
Sorry, I do not think that this is P3, moreover if this works in NB 7.2 (see comment #1, cannot verify myself) then it is likely a "regression".

Thanks.
Comment 6 Petr Pisl 2012-11-22 15:21:20 UTC 
This case fixed in web-main. Now it works due to JS doc.

Comment 7 Petr Pisl 2012-11-22 15:24:46 UTC 
I have created new issue #222601 to improve the code completion without a documentation.
Comment 8 Vladimir Riha 2012-11-23 15:41:07 UTC 
Thanks a lot, type is resolved correctly. Code completion offers methods/properties correctly and Navigator shows correct variable type.
