Hi all
I've took some time to look at jshint checks found on our code:
http://ci.phpmyadmin.net/job/phpMyAdmin-continuous/3132/violations/?#jslint
I've fixed some obvious ones (like missing ;, typecast safe comparing, missing radix for parseInt), but there are still many of them. Most of them fit into following case:
- ['strSave'] is better written in dot notation.
This error is raised to highlight an unnecessarily verbose and potentially confusing piece of code. More detailed explanation is at:
http://jslinterrors.com/a-is-better-written-in-dot-notation/
- 'type' is already defined. / 'type' used out of scope.
Most of these come from following constructs:
if (foo) { var bar = 1; } else { var bar = 1; } alert(bar);
This is not an issue for javascript (it has no block scope for variables), it can be confusing, more details at:
http://www.jshint.com/docs/#funcscope
So both are more just matter of coding style rather than real bug and can be disabled in jshint. The question is whether we would prefer to hide these warnings or fix them.
Another question: which coding style do we prefer, the one with the dot notation or with the square brackets?
