Eclipse Helios + PDT = no validation [message #634104]

Hi,

for quite some time i was using PHP-Eclipse (EasyEclipse), but bcause our company wants all to switch to one standard - Eclipse was chosen with PDT.

When we changed pretty much everything was easier to do so i had no problem with it.
But i found quite some strange "bugs" like PDT wont show some error.

For example:
it will realize this is wrong:

$test = ";

it will not realize that $not_used_var has nether been used nor initialized.

$test = $not_used_var;

PHP-Eclipse would at least throw me a warning. Until today i am searching for a function to turn this on, but didnt find it.
Validation is set on, .php files are correct, project is php.

What am i missing?

Best Regards

Hello,

did you ever get any response or solution to that problem?

I have wondering the same thing... if the IDE could have some kind of "strict" php validation, simply indicating that a php variable may not have been initialized...

Thx!

I am looking for a solution myself, now for around half a year. Nothing. The PHPEclipse warning helped me a big lot of times, when I had typos in my var names.

After looking around for some time, I found this:
http s:// www.globalways.net/blog/archives/18-Converting-existing-eclipse-projects-into-PDT-projects.html

The trick is that the project already exists, so it's got a description that doesn't fit PDT.
(remove the spaces from the link, it's garbled because I don't have the rights to post a link)

Guys, you are talking about "Semantic Analysis".
See Zend Studio and Eclipse PDT Comparison - Zend.com.
It is described as "Code Analysis & Quick Fix" under "PHP Editor and File Management", and PDT doesn't have it. In other words, it is reserved for the commercial product.
See also Zend Studio User Guide p.851 "Semantic Analysis Preferences".

Hello,

i use the Aptana Plugin to solve that problem.
After installing, the Aptana Plugin, go to window > preferences > General > Editors > File Associataions and select *.php and set PHP Source Editor to default.

That works fine!

Wait a minute!
"Semantic Awareness to View / Action Helpers" is related to "Zend Framework Integration".

Scrolling the list under "PHP Editor and File Management" we can see:
Code Assist for Include Content = YES
Syntax Coloring & Code Assist = YES

So the new version should offer the same thing as the previous version of PDT with Helios, shouldn't it?

See my problem here: www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/359347/890241/#msg_890241

FOUND!
The problem is the workspace (that's why the installation doc say to create a new one and import the folders of the Helios project Smile

)

The file with installation help I was talking about is in the Eclipse dir (tipically /opt/eclipse-php/readme/readme_eclipse.html)

Paragraph 5
5. Upgrading a Workspace from a Previous Release

In other word the solution is:

Installation of the new Eclipse PDT

Run

Start on a new workspace, letting Eclipse to create it from scratch

Copy all the project dirs of the older workspace in the new one (COPY, NOT MOVE because after this point you'll not be able to use older version of Eclipse on that workspace. Not tested, but is written in the readme of the new Eclipse. That old workspace could be of use).

File-Import->General->Existing projects into Workspace
then browse and select the new workspace, select all the project (default), dont' check the 2 checkboxes below, and that's it!

There are surely other ways to do the same, but the main concept is creating a new workspace and import the existing projects of the older one.
