How can I prevent the warning 'Property MyProp1 never defined on MyObject'?

Question

I have some HTML that contains a JSON string. In the on DOM ready callback, I have something like this:

MyObject = JSON.parse($(\'#TheJsonString\').

To suppress this warning for a specific function, you can use the @suppress annotation:

/**
 * @suppress {missingProperties}
 */
function useJsonObject() { ... }

To turn off this warning globally, use the jscomp_off compiler flag to turn off the missingProperties class of warnings.
