Error updating JScript IntelliSense: Object doesn’t support this property or method @ 2139:1

Posted May 8th, 2009 . 14 Comments . Uncategorized Tags: ,

Today I am trying out JQuery on Visual Studio 2008 for the first time. I go to the website at www.jquery.com and downloaded the library as well as the document for Visual Studio.

So I imported the JQuery library into my VS project

But when I want to try to the intellisense, I notice it is not working!! It should be able to recognize the famous $!!

Then I realize at the bottom of the VS IDE, there is an error message –

Warning    1    Error updating JScript IntelliSense: D:\workspace\Projects\JQuerySample\JQuerySample\scripts\jquery-1.3.2.js: Object doesn’t support this property or method @ 2139:1    D:\workspace\Projects\JQuerySample\JQuerySample\Default.aspx    1    1    JQuerySample

But this is not a bug inside the JQuery library itself. So I went back to scottgu’s blog post about on JQuery I notice something very difference with his library (besides the fact that he is using version 1.2.6).

I notice mine has got an extra number 2 at the end of vsdoc there. So I go back to the Google code side where I downloaded the file and I found out en they release a new vsdoc file to replace the exisiting deplecated one, they ‘tangan gatal’ change the name to jquery-1.3.2-vsdoc2.js. VS Interllisense only programmed to regconized [Javascript file name]-vsdoc.js without the 2 at the back there.

That vsdoc2 is the cause of the problem here! Just rename it to jquery-1.3.2-vsdoc.js and you got JQuery Intellisense working!

    ==For those who couldn’t make it work after the rename: make sure you’ve read ScottGu’s blog and applied the patch for VS90sp1

  12. Thanks! I had this same error and the “2″ suffix removal worked perfectly. You da man!

  13. I get the same error, but removing the 2 doesn’t fix it. I get it with “jquery-1.3.2.min.js” or “jquery-1.4.1.min.js”. Very frustrating.

  14. Sometimes that happens because another problem the version of jquery it is not compatible with visual studio 2008 or maybe a bug or error, I found a solution for visual studio 2008 with version 1.4.1 using de development file (uncompressed).

    Example:

    -Add New Folder in your solution(you can named “scripts”)
    -Download jquery 1.4.1 version
    ( 3 files: minified,uncompressed and visual studio )
    minified = http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.1.min.js
    uncompressed = http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.1.js
    visual studio = http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.1-vsdoc.js

    NOW !!!!

    Add the 3 files in “scripts” folder.
    Select uncompressed and down in head tag section.
    Example:

    AND ENJOY JQUERY AND INTELLISENSE ;) !!!

    PLEASE TEST THE OTHER NEW VERSIONS AND HELP US TO UNDERSTAND THE PROBLEMS WITH NEW VERSIONS.
