Hi,

I would like to be able to bring up autocomplete/class lookup dialog when writing docblocks:

Code:

/**
* User account.
*
* @var My\App\U
*/

Code:

/**
* @return My\App\U
*/

When typing docblocs above, it would be highly convenient to use autocomplete. As you can see above, having typed last letter "U", I'd like to press CTRL+Space and see what are the matching classes.

How about that?

Thanks,
Temuri

This is what I was looking for myself!
It could also be namespace/lookup dialog which pops up when you start typing "use " on top of the php class file.

I would also love some scoped type hinting as well. I often do something like:

Code:

foreach ($Users as $User) {
echo $User->getName() . "\n";
}

Where a simple docblock with a @var injected into the scope could tell PhpED what $User is:

Code:

foreach ($Users as $User) {
/**
* @var User $User
*/
echo $User->getName() . "\n";
}

Agreed. +1

@PureForm

Does the @var need to come before the first usage (declaration) of the variable?

Code:

/**
* @var User $User
*/
foreach ($Users as $User) {
echo $User->getName() . "\n";
}

I agree with Temuri that it would be good to get some sort of completion in PhpDoc.

@dmitri

What's your position on this?

it already worked back in 2014

what you need is to add square brackets :

as of completion in phpdoc block itself, only phpdoc tags are supported at the moment.

dmitri,

Please read my original post again. I was asking for autocomplete INSIDE docblocks. How about that?

What's about reading my post again too? Wink

I replied about completion inside phpdoc blocks too

ok, but that's the feature request. It would be great to have class names autocomplete in docblocks. any chance?
