• Support for typing parameters as Objects with certain properties:

• Code Block
  /** * @param {Object} person * @param {String} person.name * @param {String} person.email * @param {Number} person.age */ function processPerson(person) { application.output(person.name); application.output(person.email); }

• Support for rest parameters: Allows to indicate through JSDoc that a function can take unlimited trailing arguments of the specified type:

  Code Block
  /** * @param {...String} someExtraStrings One or more additional String can be send into this function */ function methodWithRestParams(someExtraString){} function test() { methodWithRestParams('one', 'two', 'three', 'four'); }

• Support for @AllowToRunInFind on functions to indicate that the the function should be executed on event handlers while in FindMode:
  Eliminates the //controller.search() workaround. Note that that running JavaScript while in FindMode has it's limitations and not all behavior is 100% defined. More details will follow.
• Support for @constructor tag, to indicate that a function declaration is to be used as a Constructor. Functions marked as Constructor also display differently in the Script Outline view 
• Automatic JSDoc @type setting on global and Form variables
• Ability to update the type of a variable by updating the JSdoc @type tag value AND the default value
• Added specific JSDoc context for Templates (Window > Preferences > JavaScript > Editor > Templates), besides the already existing JavaScript context.
• Removed Strict Mode option from the JavaScript Preferences: the additional warnings that where generated with Strict Mode enabled are now part of the extended JavaScript Error/Warnings preferences and thus can be enabled/disabled on individual basis  

Code completion

• Overall much better context aware code-completion, due to improved type inference and extended JSDoc support
• Support for code-completion on inline Java: The support is on Class level, not Package level:
  • Packages.java. //Code-completion here won't yield anything
  • Packages.java.lang.System. //Code-completion here works
• Deprecation decorator on deprecated objects:
  
• Type Icons in code-completion popup
• Method return type info in code-completion popup
• Originating Scope info in in code-completion popup 
• Scripting overloading support
