Javascript Intellisense for control

[Michael]

Im unable to get javascript intellisense working for a specific controls client side API.

the control I'm working with right now is DateTimePicker.
how do I get javascript intelliesense to work with it?

none of these objects are available in intellisense

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/calendar-client-side-rad-datetimepicker.html

I already added a reference to the core telerik javascript

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
    <Scripts>
        <asp:ScriptReference Name="Telerik.Web.UI.Common.Core.js" Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" />
    </Scripts>
</asp:ScriptManager>

I tried to add Name="Telerik.WebUI.Calendar.RadDateTimePicker.js" Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" />

We have premium license and I looked in the source code and it has the vsdoc files for javascript intellisense but it doesn't work for me?

Hello Michael,

I just tried to reproduce this problem but had no luck. Please check the attached screenshot.

You can press CTRL + SHIFT + J to force the Visual Studio to update the Javascript intellisense.

It doesnt work for me like it appears it should in your example
If I use

var StartTime = $find('<%= rtpStart.ClientID %>')

It doesn't work

I need to use

var picker = $telerik.findDateTimePicker('<%= rtpStart.ClientID %>');

Any Idea why that is?

Hello Michael,

Javascript intellisense will work properly only it the object is converted (cast) to its actual type. So in the first case you have to write something like this:

var pickerComp = $find('<%= RadDateTimePicker1.ClientID %>');
var picker = $telerik.toDateTimePicker(pickerComp);
picker...

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
