SUMMARY

If I write javascript code using `class` and such, I get "Syntax Error" from the parser


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a js file in your project
2. Type something like `class Foo {}`
3. You might need to close and re-open the file  for the parser to pick up the errors (not 100% reliable)
4. Open the "Problems" pane
5. Notice it highlights "class" as a syntax error

OBSERVED RESULT

The parser treats ECMAScript 6 features as syntax errors.

EXPECTED RESULT

It should parse them correctly.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
