VS.Php the Php editor for Visual Studio .Net adds support for PhpDoc

Miami FL - April 11, 2005 - Jcx.Software today announced the immediate availability of VS.Php version 1.1.1. This update adds support for PhpDoc commenting, secure ftp deployment capabilities and many bug fixes

PhpDoc is a powerful feature of Php that allows the developer to add comments to the source code that can be used to generate documentation. VS.Php uses this information to provide a better intellisense content. For instance, VS.Php is able to parse those comments to determine what type is a particular variable. Intellisense uses this information to better help the developer. This update also adds support for secure ftp protocol for deploying applications through a secure connection.

Jcx.Software founder, J. Rivera states: �Due to the nature of the Php language it is difficult to provide the same level of intellisense support of strong typed languages like C# and Java. PhpDoc comments overcome this limitation by allowing the developer to provide the type information. PhpDoc comments increase the productivity by providing richer intellisense content.�

Along the many other improvements are:

  • Improved integration with source code control. VS.Php works with SourceSafe, CVS, Subversion, ClearCase and any SCC-compliant software.
  • Improved performance handling large projects. VS.Php can handle projects with thousands of files.
  • Better support for user references. User references provide another way to increase productivity by enhancing the content provided by intellisense.
  • Up to date list of Php built-in modules for intellisense.
  • VS.Php is a professional Php integrated development environment for Microsoft Visual Studio .Net. It enables Visual Studio .Net developers to design, develop, debug and deploy Php applications from inside Visual Studio .Net.
