I’m currently working on a project in Java, that will allow users to type Javascript code into a GWT Widget. How would I go about importing/using JSLint to check for errors? I looked around and found LSLint4Java, but I couldn’t find the way to import it into eclipse. I just need a simple JS error checker that will check a string for errors.
If anyone has any other suggestions for error checking, please share them!
Thanks.
The JSlint javascript source can be found here. You could include the javascript in your WAR, reference it with a script link in your page(s), and make JSNI calls from/to your GWT code.
Note that JSLint has a No Evil clause in it’s license:
Here’s a good start on JSNI.
