JSDT "Open Declaration" NOT WORKING for JsDoc "hints". OK if type is inferred. A [message #895658]

Hello,

Please see the 2 simple js sources below.
While editing tmp2.js, autocomplete works for both parameter p and for "new F()".
However "Open Declaration" does not work for parameter p, while it works as expected for "new F()".

Please advice!

/// tmp1.js ////////////////////////////////////////
function F() {
this.method = function () {

};
this.meth2 = function () {};
}

/// tmp2.js ////////////////////////////////////////
/**
* @param {F} p
*/
function b(p) {
p.meth2();
new F().msethod();
}

I'm running:

which contains org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core_1.1.201.v201203071941.jar

Just to be sure I'm clear enough...

By "Open Declaration for parameter p" I mean trying to access the declaration of meth2 in class F.
Eclipse shows in the status bar: "Current text selection does not resolve to a JavaScript element".

Same operation on method "method" in class F called from "new F().method()" navigates to tmp1.js and to the method declaration.

Since auto-complete works in both cases, JSDT recognizes that parameter p is of type F, but why doesn't it navigate to the declaration?

Thanks,

F is p's type; it isn't p. It sounds like you've already navigated to the origination of p. If you want to navigate to the declaration of F, select a reference to F, not a reference to p.
