I don't have admin rights to my work PC so this may flavour the question and answer.
I installed WebStorm 8 recently and it has version 2.5.1 of JSHint available in its dropdown.
My company asked me to move to IDEA (13) and it only has 2.4.4 max available.
How does one upgrade the version available? http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/jshint.html says:
Version Use this drop-down list to choose the version of the tool to apply.
IntelliJ IDEA comes bundled with version 1.0.0, which is used by default. IntelliJ IDEA provides the ability to download another version, which is not bundled. Actually, the alternative version is downloaded only once, whereupon it is available without download.
But I cannot find any other information. I thought it might be as simple as installing a new version into some directory, however I cannot work out which directory. I can find the following WebStorm directory under my c:\Users\u12345 directory:
- ./.WebStorm8/system/javascript/jshint
And this contains various versions of JSHint.js (mmmm, interestingly it doesn't contain 2.5.1).
But there is no such directory for IDEA. There is the following but it contains a file named "versions.json2105254839554338569.tmp"
- ./.IntelliJIdea13/system/javascript/jshint
Can anyone tell me how to upgrade the version of JSHint used in IDEA?
