[wtp-dev] Type inferral on JSDT

["Andres C. Rodriguez" <acr@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I am trying to make JSDT work for my JS libraries. I have a couple of 
questions.

1. Is the type in the JsDoc used for type inference?  I have the code 
below, but I am getting a warning saying: 'nextSibling cannot be 
resolved or is not a field' over 'nextSibling'.  If it is not used, what 
other way do I have to tell JSDT the type of a certain object.

2. Static functions such as the one below (not attached to prototype) 
are being shown in the outline, but then flagged as errors: 'The 
function insertAfter(any, any, any) is undefined for the type Function'. 
 I should note that this happens when I try to use the static function 
inside the same JS file, when I use it outside, things seem to work.

Thanks for your help and keep up the good work.
