What is the correct JSDoc syntax for a local variable?


I usually use something like the code below in my projects.

function example() {  /**   * Need to explain the purpose of X here.   * @type {number}   */  var X = 100;  ...  /**   * Need to explain the purpose of Y here.   * @type {string}   */  var Y = 'abc';  ...  return Z;}


one liner:

  /** @type {string} */  var Y = 'abc';


It seems that JS Docs ignores comments within the "block" (E.g. class, function, etc.). I tried...

@description@inner@instance@member@memberof@name@summary

...and others. I was unable to get any of them to generate documentation. Throughout the JS Doc examples they use normal JS comments for this sort of thing.

I have concluded that there is no official JS Doc syntax for this.
