Content Assist shows too few entries [message #1741223]

Hi everybody,

Today i installed Eclipse for PHP Developers (Nein 4.6.0).

i started to write some stuff, and i realized that the Content Assist shows only a hand full of entries.

For example:
There is a entry for echo
There is a entry for if
there is a entry for require

BUT

there is no entry e.g. for
mysqli_query
mysql_real_escape_string
mysqli_connect
time
date

and many more.

So my question is wether it is possible to add all the other entries.

Is there a file i have to import?

Thanks in advance,

cheers,
Manu

You project have PHP support enabled? For example via new => php project?

Inside project should be created file .buildpath

Okay thank you for the reply.

If i create a new PHP Project, it works.

However i don't use a PHP project for my current project, but i have installed the RSE and i am using a ftp connection.

In the RSE i open a remote file and edit this file. After Editing i upload it again.

So is it possible to add this PHP features to the Content Assist for the downloaded files ?

Thanks,
cheers

There is a hack. See step 8 from here: http://www.patrickjwaters.com/blog/2011-07-24/how-setup-eclipse-php-pdt-remote-system-explorer-theme-manager-and-drupal-plugins/35
