How to use intellisense.js file that came with jQu

问题:

I just found that the lastest version (1.8.0) of jQuery NuGet package include the new type of vsdoc file that I cannot find any documentation. The intellisense file just only include xml comment-based document of jQuery library. I don't sure how to use this file.

Do you have any idea or document about this? I use VS2012 for this project.

In JavaScript file, the JavaScript language service provides IntelliSense features for third-party JavaScript libraries that are added to a project. For most libraries, statement completion is provided automatically by the language service. The following illustration shows an example of statement completion:

In Visual Studio 2012, Visual Studio will automatically find ".intellisense.js" file and use it like old vsdoc file without writing real JavaScript structure.

For additional information, please look at the following link.

回答2:

you don't need to do anything. you just need to install or update jquery package from nuget by using

Install-Package jQuery

or

Update-Package jQuery

and then the intellisense and documentation is available everywhere.

you don't need vsdoc anymore because the new file jquery-1.8.0.intellisense is more organized.
