Dear all,
how can associate php files that don't have .php extension? Suppose I have a php file that name a.module. Since its extension is .module instead of .php, Eclipse PDT cannot put breakpoint on it also the php coloring scheme is not display on the editor.

How can I fix this?

regards,
ethereal1m

hey,
thanks for the fast reply, but after I associate .module extension with php and text editor, it doesn't fix the problem, the color scheme still doesn't show and breakpoint still cannot be set (it tries to set a bookmark instead)...

Any idea?

I found that on eclipse pdt 2.2, I had to restart eclipse in order for
the file content association to work properly.

I assume you're adding *.module for Drupal sites. Please check out my PDT plug-in for Drupal development at http://xtnd.us/eclipse/install because it'll add *.module, *.install, *.theme, and so on, for you.

To include drupal files into eclipse follow the below steps:
go to window-> preferences-> General ->content Type -> Text-> PHP content type->
add new *.info,*.module and *.install file association in it.

hope this may help you!

this does not help in Juno version of Eclipse. The problem is the %content-type.name.0 bug described at stackoverflow questions 13297314. Unfortunately, the jar file mentioned for the workaround is no longer included in Juno builds even though the bug still persists.

The manual solution provided in stackoverflow post 13297314 (cannot-see-php-content-type-in-eclipse-preferences) does work to change the label to "PHP Content Types". However, Eclipse still does not recognize any files matching file associations added to this content type as being PHP files.

Guys...
PHP Content Types label problem is on PDT 3.1.1. The latest PDT 3.1.2 has no such problem.
