Here is my test:
```js
var i = JSON.parse('1');
var a = JSON.parse('[1]');
var o = JSON.parse('{"foo":"bar"}');
var s = JSON.parse('"string"');
var n = JSON.parse('null');
i instanceof Object; // false
a instanceof Object; // true
o instanceof Object; // true
s instanceof Object; // false
n instanceof Object; // false
```
JSON.parse returns the `any` type so I think this method should do the same.
More of the discussion regarding this pull request can be found on the original commit 8c23d04a5bhttps://github.com/borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped/commit/8c23d04a5b4a0505df042a82be90f95adff02d87
The compile function returns a template function. The template function takes two parameters, `context` and `options`. These are both optional parameters. This commit fixes `context` to be optional.
The filters in RefreshHints should be optional so there is no error when updating a single one such as:
this.dataView.setRefreshHints({
isFilterUnchanged: true
});
