Error description

• Env:
  Rational Application Developer 7.5.3
  
  Description:
  https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=241794
  
  If you have such javascript code
  
  function doSomething(){doSomeotherthing();}
  function doSomeotherthing(){<% Simpletest.getHi(); %> }
  
  Java script will only complain that 'The function
  doSomeotherthing() is undefined'.
  Although in 7.5 it was complaining about the following
    'Syntax error on token '<', invalid expression'
   'Syntax error, insert '}' to complete MethodBody'
    'The function doSomeotherthing() is undefined'.
  
  and if you switch the order
  
  function doSomeotherthing(){<% Simpletest.getHi(); %> }
  function doSomething(){doSomeotherthing();}
  
  It doesn't complain about anything.
