JavaScript: The Good Parts

Report

If JSLint is able to complete its scan, it generates a function report. It lists the following for each function:

• The line number on which it starts.

• Its name. In the case of anonymous functions, JSLint will "guess" the name.

• The parameters.

• Closure: the variables and parameters that are declared in the function that are used by its inner functions.

• Variables: the variables declared in the function that are used only by the function.

• Unused: the variables that are declared in the function that are not used. This may be an indication of an error.

• Outer: variables used by this function that are declared in another function.

• Global: global variables that are used by this function.

• Label: statement labels that are used by this function.

The report will also include a list of all of the member names that were used.
