Variable type not used for IntelliSense of object literal when type is declared in comment

[chrmarti]

• VSCode Version: 1.11.1

Test tour #23385

When declared in TypeScript this work, in JavaScript comments it doesn't:

The variable has that type and it is used when accessing it:

The source:

var Vue = require('vue');

/** @type {vuejs.ComponentOption} */
var opt = {

};
opt.

The issue is unclear to me. Is it that when triggering suggestions inside of the opts object, you don't see any helpful suggestions for the type, but for opts.| you do?

I'm able to get either case working properly. Do I need to install the vue extension?

I can reproduce it with extensions disabled and an otherwise empty folder.

A few TS bugs around this:

• Old @types/vue from ATA being picked up: Uninstall ATA Installed Types Packages if they Are No Longer in the TypesRegistry TypeScript#15164
• No suggestions inside of object literal: Populate inheritied properties and methods in completion list inside a class TypeScript#7158
• require types not working with jsdocs: JSDoc Does not Pick up Type imported using Require TypeScript#14056

Closing as upstream

Thanks @mjbvz !
