How can I tell jslint that a function is external?

Question

I have the following code:

/*jslint browser: true*/
/*global $, jQuery*/

if (json.RowKey !== json.NewRowKey) {
   $("#row_" + row).attr('data-rk', json.RowKey);
   updateGridMeta(entity, json.PartitionKey, json.NewRowKey, row, obj.table);
   updateGridTitles();
}

lint is reporting that updateGridTitles is used before it is defined. Is there a way to add something to the top of my script to tell it to not report this?

if updateGridTitles is defined later you could simply add

var updateGridTitles;

to the top

updateGridTitles is defined in another file so I think it's something global. Can I define that in /*global ? – Sep 25 '12 at 08:22

The same way as the other variables you are telling JSLint are global.

Add it to this list:

/*global $, jQuery*/

Such:

/*global $, jQuery, updateGridMeta */

Yes, its a comma separated list. – Quentin Sep 25 '12 at 08:23

You can indeed tell jslint that a function is global. Have a look at their documentation here: http://www.jslint.com/lint.html#global and another question asked here: JSLint: was used before it was defined
