JSDoc autocomplete should not apply to classes #7325
Description
Activity
I don't think we'd have construct-specific options or behavior for this, but an option to turn it off entirely seems reasonable.
The autocomplete for methods and functions is certainly useful, as it can save having to type out parameters, e.g.
/** * * @param instance * @param startPosition * @param endPosition * @param durationMS */ public top(instance: {}, startPosition: string, endPosition: string, durationMS: number)
It just doesn't make sense at the class-level.
Another case that I think interferes with the normal flow is when a function or method has no parameters:
My JSDoc for this case is, again, typically a single line:
/** Gets a short description for each rating type. */ public getDescriptions() { return this.descriptions; }
Just want to point out that parameter-less functions can still have
@return,@template, etc annotations, so unless globally turned off with an LS option it should still be emitted.In my case I find that the return is already normally in the description, e.g "Adds an item to persistent storage and returns the id".
Yes, I understand. I'm just saying that it shouldn't be disabled completely for parameter-less functions, but only disabled if the new option that Ryan proposed is enabled.
Edit: And class-level annotations make sense for the same reason -
@template,@memberof, etc.Discussed and several people felt that having multi-line comments here made sense too. So without a consensus that one is better than the other and a desire to not have tons of skeletoning options, the current behavior is what we'd like to continue with
Reacted by Anthony CiccarelloOh dear. I have disliked JSDoc from day one, and it only gets worse with use with its intrusive and awkward style. This is bad news.

I find the following JSDoc autocomplete terribly annoying:
My JSDoc for classes is almost always a one-liner:
Please consider removing this autocomplete feature for classes, or at least provide an option for turning it off.
Thanks!
