My situation:

I've got 3 directories:
/site/www
/site/actions
/site/classes

The www has got 1 file: site.php; which includes classes/engine.class.php

This engine class creates some other classes, like user and template.
Furthermore, the engine includes one action (choice based on post/getvars) from the actions directory.

I want to edit the login action, and get Code Completion on the template class;
If I type "template::" I get code completion; but if I type "$this->template->" it doesn't know it, because it doesn't know that "this" is the "engine" class.

Is there a way to set this? Or a work around?

(4.6.1; build 4625eval)

I think you just have to properly tag the template member variable with phpdoc comments.

I doubt that. The editor doesn't even know i'm in the engine scope, so tagging the template member in the engine object won't work.

ahh.. seems like you are creating your action object dynamically. could you post some (pseudo-)code?

Make sure all the directories with your php source files are either in the project tree (in or below project's root directory) or they are listed in the Code Insight Includes list (see project properties). It's sufficient to list only top directories in this list, they are scanned recursively.

a quick example of my code:

site.php?action=login

Code:

$engine = new engine();
$engine->parse($_REQUEST['action']);

engine.class:

Code:

$this->template = new smarty();

function parse($action) {
include("../actions/".$action.".action.php);
}

login.action.php:

Code:

#login action; if no data is posted, display login screen;
$this->template->getContent("login.tmpl");

engine:: // code completion works; so it knows the engine object
template:: // code completion works; so it knows the template object
$this-> // code completion doesn't work, it doesn't know what "this" is.

In login.action.php, I now have the "this" object, which is the engine object.
But if I type "$this->" and try to complete it, the message: "
Code completion is not available due to the following error(s):
Failed to identify type of "$this" global variable"

So, the problem is not that the files are not in my Code Insight Include List.

If at that point $this contains an instance of specific class, you can put PHPDOC comment about it (see post about type hints on FAQ forum).
If you can't point to a specific class, it means that your code is too dynamic and even you do not know the class name, needless to say that Code Insight can't guess it too Smile

Ok, that solves half!
Thanks.

in my actionfile I have set this:

Code:

/**
* @var engine
*/
$this->void();

In my engine class I have documented customer and factory:

Code:

/**
* @var customer
*/
public
$customer;

/**
* @var objectfactory
*/
public
$factory;

Code:

$c = $this->factory->getCustomerById(); // CC works for the factoryclass;
$this->customer-> // CC works for the customerclass;

$a = $this->customer;
$a-> // CC doesn't work. [i]Failed to find class of "factory" member, declared as "factory")[/i]

Strange, because I declared the factory member as objectfactory.

I tried to reproduce the problem but it constantly works well Smile

Look at this:

Would be nice if you compose a sample that replicates the problem you encountered.

nuspheretext.php

Code:

<?

class engine {
/**
* @var customer
*/
public $customer;

/**
* @var objectfactory
*/
public $factory;

function __construct() {
$this->factory = new objectfactory();
$this->customer = $this->factory->getCustomer("waa?");
}

function parse() {
#$this->customer-> //CC Works
#$x = $this->customer-> // CC Works
$x = $this->customer;
#$x-> // CC Works
$result = include("nuspheretestaction.php");
}

}

class objectfactory {
function getCustomer($name) {
return new customer($name);
}
}

class customer {
public $name;
function __construct($name) {
$this->name = $name;
}

function getName() {
return $this->name;
}

}

$engine = new engine();
echo $engine->customer->getName();
$engine->parse();

?>

nuspheretestaction.php

Code:

/**
* @var engine
*/
echo $this->customer->getName(); // CC Works

$x = $this->customer;
$x-> // CC Doesnt work

In Nuspheretest.php in the $engine->parse method, all works perfect, but in nuspheretestaction.php, the same doesn't work.

Hi Dmitri,
were you able to reproduce it?

Posted: Wed Oct 25, 2006 3:37 am

Hi Nielsz,
yes, sure, I was able to get it. Now it needs our developer's time to get fixed Smile
