I’ve been referred here from the EPP-Dev list. If thereis a better place for my
questions, please advise. While a long-time developer, I’m not a developer
ofEclipse tools, I work at the app level. I've taken interest in FOSS
thatfacilitates JavaScript plugins to be run in the JRE. I’m running the
latestEclipse Neon.1 plus Tern, and looking for the best Java + JavaScript
polyglot CodeAssist available with the current technology. For example, I can't
find theabsolute latest answers to questions about code like this: /** How is
thisreference to core namespace and class annotated? And how and wheredo I
define the dependencies?*/var File = java.io.File, myDir =
newFile('TestDir'), // should offer assistance on constructors myFile =
newFile(myDir,'FileName');if (!myFile.exists()) { // should recognize this
method// Where do I set path references for non-core resources? var myClass
=new com.foo.bar.baz.Class(); myClass.doSomething(myFile); // and will it
offer assistance forreferences like this?} I believe I need to start fitting
code like this withJSDoc annotations to help the parsers. Before I go on a
spree to annotateeverything, it would be helpful to know how to get the best
code completion,type recognition, etc from unannotated code. To facilitate
that, I will be looking for a mechanismthat allows for JSDoc annotation
suggestions from selection of functions,variables, etc. The default (Source >
Generate Element Comment) don't seemto work. Any tool recommendations? I
understand this forum is for Web Tool developers. I'mhoping for recommendations
for more user-oriented questions or to work withdevelopers toward specific
issue resolution. When content assistance doesn'twork for the code above, for
example, I don't know whether to look for a JSDTforum, whether it's a Tern
issue, one of the Tern plugins, a core Eclipseissue, etc. Thanks!T_______________________________________________
