JSHint W117 inline ignore

JSHint override not being respected.

[Output]: [L59:C38] W117: 'alert' is not defined.

[Output]: /*jshint -W117 */alert("failed to load review data..");/*jshint +W117 */

-- Actual line of code:

$scope.example.$get(
    function(data){
       $scope.data =  //do something;
    }, function(message){
        /*jshint -W117 */alert("failed..");/*jshint +W117 */
});

I use these for other warnings, but W117 seems to be ignored.

alert("failed.."); //jshint ignore:line
