How to ignore IE errors ?

[Tenumm]

Hello All,

I was wondering if its possible to ignore checks for IE. For example I
am getting following error

index.js:829: ERROR - Parse error. Internet Explorer has a non-
standard intepretation of trailing commas. Arrays will have the wrong
length and objects will not parse at all.
]

1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

I was wondering if there is way to ignore checks for IE.

You would have to modify the compiler source.

A diagnostic group was recently added to control this.

or, more precisely, it's
--jscomp_off=internetExplorerChecks

I tried the option and got the following:
java.lang.NullPointerException: No warning class for name:
internetExplorerChecks

what version of the compiler are you using?

The compiler-latest.zip downloaded today!

[John Lenz]

I don't believe it is in a release zip yet, it is available from the top-of-tree.  You shouldn't get a null pointer exception, we should look into that.

Ah yes, that would do it. I stumbled across this thread when trying to solve my issues with the IE related errors (don't care about IE for the application we're developing) and didn't realise that the "internetExplorerChecks" option was so cutting edge. I will just have to wait for a new build or attempt to build it myself!

Thanks,
Dan

Luckily most of these checks will go away in EcmaScript5 mode as the committee formalized on the FireFox/Chrome behavior and IE9 matches it.

Now we just have to watch and wait as XP dies a painful, drawn-out death.

Luckily people seem to want to upgrade to 7 so it may actually happen ...
