js library file - what is the format? [message #232186]

hi;
our project defines javascript classes in c/c++ (a la SpiderMonkey); and
i'd like to define stubs for these classes that specify the classnames,
methods and properties... so that code highlighting and syntax checking
would be accurate.

questions:
1) is there a specific format to a js library file - one that has not have
documentation for each class/method/property
2) any sample js library file available ? if so - where can i get it?
(even the firebug js file is ok... just want to look at something that
works with JSDT and emulate that syntax).
3) where can i learn about jsdoc syntax ?

kindest regards,
Sheshadri

The format is plain JavaScript; just leave your method contents
empty. Documentation is still encouraged since it improves accuracy
of return types and argument types. All of the provided libraries
are in this format, as they're emulating what a compliant runtime
would provide. Tags are documented at the JSDoc Wiki,
http://code.google.com/p/jsdoc-toolkit/w/list .
