[PDT/PHP] Find superclass(es) for given class [message #658435]

Hi everyone. I'm developing a DLTK/PDT plugin (it's a goal evaluator extensions that do type hinting for Code Assist). I did something like:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Extending_PDT_2.2#Type_inference_hin ting

Now I'm stucked because, after I succed to get the PHP class name I need, I can't find the way to check if that XXX class is a subclass of YYY. I can't figure out!
There's a way to explore the PHP Type Hierarchy? Or something, I don't know...

Thank you.
Lorenzo.

Hello Lorenzo.

I just had to do something similar but starting with an "ISourceModule" instance.

for (IType type : sourceModule.getTypes()) {
    String[] ancestors = type.getSuperClasses();
    // ancestors are only the immediate parent types, not the grand-parent types
    foreach (String superClass : ancestors) {
        System.out.println(superClass);
    }
}

Basically the key is in "IType#getSuperClasses()". Much easier than I expected it to be!
