@return type detection about sublime-jsdocs

[spadgos]

Hey Ton4y,

Thanks for the feature request, but I think I'm going to have to put this one in the too-hard basket. This sort of introspection of the code is actually far from simple, especially with dynamic languages like PHP and Javascript. Even the task of getting the actual code of the following function is a surprisingly difficult task, let alone trying to evaluate that code to determine the return type. I saw that you forked the repo, so if you want to give it a shot and send a pull request, I'd be happy to look at it, but I don't think I want to take this one on.

Cheers.

I have to agree with you, the importance of the feature, and the time and effort implementing it would consume should be balanced. I still think the idea is good, but I agree that it is too difficult for a non-essential feature.

I would put some time on it, but I do not work with / know python, so..

Thanks for the answer anyway!

Hehe, yeah, I actually don't know python either! 👅
