JavaScript class definition local scope enable global code completion with tern

Question

We use this way to define classes in our js code:

  ( function( $, wb ) {
        "use strict";

        /**
        * @class wb.QueryServiceEditor
        * @constructor
        */
        var SELF = wb.QueryServiceEditor = function QueryServiceEditor(
        ) {
        };

        SELF.prototype.fromTextArea = function( selector ){
        };

    }( jQuery, wb ) );

The problem I have with this approach is that the code completion I use (eclipse + tern) is not working well with this when using this class QueryServiceEditor from a different scope.

How could we improve our code to make code completion possible everywhere?

The important thing when you work with ternjs is that you must declare your variable. Perhaps you have not declared your wb variable?

I have tried with tern.java 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT and it seems it works, here a screenshot with completion for fromTextArea method:
