💻 Code

/**
  * @attribute
  * @type {{ a: string, b: number }} 
  */
var9

🙁 Actual behavior

I have checkJS enabled

When attempting to get the type for a node with an object literal using typeChcker.getTypeAtLocation, it returns an error type for the given node.

🙂 Expected behavior

When the @type tag refers to a @typedef eg /** @typedef {{ x: number, y: number }} MyType */ it resolves the type correctly. I would expect the inline object literal type notation to behave in the same way as the type def
