Re: GJS internal linter

[Andrea Giammarchi <andrea giammarchi gmail com>]

by "your" I meant `gjs` or even `mozjs24`, hopefully nobody took that personal. It's not, but linter on languages are annoying: the Syntax parser is already *the only* needed linter!

Thanks for your understanding, just try to imagine it took long time for me to patch manually all linter errors in that standalone-babel file.

Best Regards

I will try to hack the hell out of everything I can to make that env variable available by default ... please release a gjs that doesn't bother developers with tool-chain/deployment related tasks like any linter would be: it's not your responsibility to tell people how to write **valid syntax**

Thank You!!!

Since I've received zero answers on this one, I've assumed there was no way to do that.

I'm sure there is a way, but I just had no time to investigate this week. Sorry.

I believe the "internal linter" is a SpiderMonkey thing, not GJS, so it would be more a question of whether GJS would accept a patch to disable it.

...aaaand I found the answer in scarcely more time than it took me to reply to your email :-)

GJS_DISABLE_EXTRA_WARNINGS=1 gjs myprogram.js

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gjs/tree/gjs/jsapi-util.cpp#n88

It is indeed a SpiderMonkey feature that GJS turns on by default. Still, it would be nice to disable it per file or something.
