Summary: Please add feature to check types via JSDoc Key: NETBEANS-184 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-184 Project: NetBeans Issue Type: Improvement Components: javascript - Editor Affects Versions: Next Reporter: Christian Lenz I have this piece of code: /** * @param {Number} name description */ var test = function (name) { console.log(name); }; test("test"); You can see, that I declared the name parameter, inside my JSDoc param as typ Number. When I call my function, I give an argument as a string. In IntelliJ, there is a feature, where the IDE check the type of the param and the returning value and so on, via the JSDoc annotations. You can find the information here: http://blog.jetbrains.com/webide/2012/10/validating-javascript-code-with-jsdoc-types-annotations/ This feature would be very nice, so we can have a semi type checker for JavaScript, without learning TypeScript or Flow or AtScript or whatever.
