I have tested this only on Eclipse 3.3 and PDT 1.05
Others with older setups please add test results.

class FooClass {
/**
* @var BarClass
*/
public $Object;

public function __construct(BarClass $o) {
$this->Object = $o;
}

public function worker() {
$this->Object->|
}
}

class BarClass {
public function doSomething() {}
public function doSomeOtherThing() {}
}

Code-assist invoked at the "|"-position in worker() suggests both
methods of "BarClass".

Erm, but this has always worked (minus the times pdt behaves buggy).
Please note that it is by necessity that you need to give an explicit
type annotation for $Object, the type inferencer would otherwise have no
idea what type $Object has.

-- Aside, I would recommend not to start variables with a capital. Now
it is more difficult to tell a variable part from a class name.

True true I just didn't know it was implemented in PDT. I have asked for
this many times but no one seemed to know how to do it so I figured
maybe there were many who would like to know how :)

yes you are right regarding the naming of instance variables. It is a,
perhaps bad, habit because in PHP we have a sign in front of variables
making it easy to see if it's a variable or class name. But this is no
excuse for someone beating hard on the "best practice"-path.
