Consider this simple javascript code – http://jsfiddle.net/mark69_fnd/c2DRP/

Validating the code with JSLint triggers the jslint “Strict violation” error on the usage of this inside the inner function. However, that function is invoked with the correct non global context.

So, I wonder how do I suppress this JSLint error for that particular function?

Thanks.

    JSLint does not support this, you’ll have to just ignore it. The community fork called JSHint has an option called validthis which can suppress the warnings in cases like yours:

    This option suppresses warnings about possible strict violations when the code is running in strict mode and you use this in a non-constructor function. You should use this option—in a function scope only—when you are positive that your use of this is valid in the strict mode (for example, if you call your function using Function.call).
