Option to force the type when using JSdoc

[Paul]

Hi,

I was wondering if there's an option to force the type if the type is specified by JSDoc. For example, if I have the code below, I'd expect only codecompletion on the number type

/**

 * @returns{Number}

 */

function test(){

  returns 'hello'

}

According to me, when JSDoc specifies something, that should be leading and additional types retrieved through inference should be ignored.

Ideally, a validator (tern.lint for example) would raise an error here that the function returns a value that is not of the type declared in the JSDoc

If this is not yet available, could this be (easily) added?

TIa,

Paul

I don't think this should be the default behavior, but patch
https://github.com/marijnh/tern/commit/8f485d5577b8aca60ccef01225f41fa5b252100a
implements this as an optional setting. If you configure the
doc_comment plugin with strong: true in your .tern-project file, it'll
assign a higher-than-default weight to the types it finds in comments,
and thus overrides inferred types.

Does this work for you?
