VS.Php and PHPDOC ???

Posted March 18th, 2005 by ebinfo

Yep, that's right! There have been quite a few suggestions / feature request about making VS.Php interact with PHPDOC comments. Well, the last build that was released on the mailing introduce an initial support for PHPDOC comments integration with intellisense!!!

What this means is that you can use PHPDOC compliant comments to describe a function / variable / object, and the intellisense will pick up the information in order to build the tooltips, as well as define the icon to be used for the intellisense items.

Now please keep in mind that this is the first draft of PHPDOC support to there may be some bugs lingering in there, we are doing our best to make these go away as soon as possible.

Users are encouraged to give a test drive on the latest build and give out their ideas / suggestions about PHPDOC supporting.

You may encounter some massive CPU usage thou (cpu going 100%), which is related to the parser so you may want to wait until the next build before starting your trials of PHPDOC.

Now have a nice day and happy VS.Php'ing :D

    Build 1.1.0.1794 recently releases on the mailing list fixed the problem with the parser.

    It also add support for the @return type for functions and methods.

    For instance with functions:

    $a = FunctionCalled()

    $a will be of the type defined in @return

    And Methods:
    $a = $b->foo();

    $a will be the type of @return for the foo method

    Support for object::method() is not yet available but work is being done to make it work.

    Enjoy the latest release!
