javascript dependency [message #91966]

Right now, when I open any js file, I get lots errors like this:

The javascript are part of some Drupal PHP page, they are linked in
like this when the page is rendered:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/misc/jquery.js?9"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/misc/drupal.js?9"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/sites/gsprint_devel/modules/thickbox/thickbox_auto.js?9 "></script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="/sites/gsprint_devel/modules/thickbox/thickbox.js?9"></script >

So how can I tell PDT drupal.js depends on jquery.js so it won't
complain $ is undefined?

On a line like this:

var Drupal = Drupal || { 'settings': {}, 'behaviors': {}, 'themes':
{}, 'locale': {} };

I get error: "The operator || is undefined for the argument type(s)
__Drupal0, any"

This should be okay. Why am I getting this error?

Matthew,

Unfortunately this isn't a problem with PDT per say. It is a problem
with the way the project is setup in Eclipse and there is additional
steps needed to make sure the Javascript interpreter knows that you are
using jQuery. I am currently in the same process of getting Drupal
projects JS files working with Eclipse. If you do a web search for
"eclipse jquery" you will see some documentation on the topic. I haven't
found a great step-by-step guide to do this setup yet. In the general
sense you have to include the the javascript files within the misc
directory as an included files to the project even if you aren't
interacting with it directly. So jquery.js and drupal.js would be two
files as included scripts available to the other javascript files.

If / when I find a good guide to getting jQuery working in Eclipse I
will post it here.

Hi Shawn,

I'm particularly keen to get JQuery going as well, I'm using 64Bit PDT2.0
with Eclipse Ganymede.

Good luck finding that guide:)

Regards,

Craig

Hi Shawn,

I'm looking for this as well. If I find it I'll also post here. Desperate
to get JQuery working within my Eclipse PDT2.0 install.

Ok, you know exactly what I'm talking about. So I you even find the
solution, please let me know.

At the meantime, does anyone else know what to do about this?

Matthew,

I turned off JavaScript Syntax Validation in
Window/Preferences/Validation. This does not really fix the issue, but
at least if you have a real error it would not be mixed in with hundreds
of erroneous errors on the Problems View.

I am trying to set up a Drupal development environment using PDT. I am
hoping that there is some way to configure the drupal.js and jquery.js
libraries on the one of the Eclipse paths - I have tried but nothing
seems to work.

Do you know of any solutions for this issue?

Thanks,

Dave

Nope. I gave up on this one. I just use Firebug for debugging
javascript.
