Custom ide-tooltip-popup for functions [message #46418]

Hi,

I don't know how to find info about this: when I type the name of a php
function the ide show a tooltip popup with infoemations about the function
and its parameters, something like

-------------------------------------
Description
This function do this and this...

Parameters
usefulparam int

Returns
int
-------------------------------------

Can I write documentation on my custom functions so that when they are
written the ide shows the infos about them?
How?

I hope to be clear :)

Thanks

The documentation of a PHP function is taken by parsing the standard PHPDoc

Thank you, the syntax seems to be already supported by pdt.
The problem is that the tooltip is really small and it shows only a little
part of the description... :(

Another question.

I try with something like

<?php
class my_class {
/**
* Do a sum
* @param int $a
* @param int $b
* @return int
*/
function sum($a,$b){ return $a+$b; }
}
?>

When I type

$x = new my_class();
$x->

The tooltip says

-----------------------
Location:
/directory/file.php

Class:
my_class

Description:
Do a sum

Parameters:
int a
int b
....
-----------------------

It says the location and the class name that are not required, and then the
bottom is trunked so even the return type is listed :(
