Intellisense for Extension DLLs on Windows? [message #520294]

I'm running PDT on Eclipse 3.5.1

My PHP installation is using the MongoDB driver which is exposed via a PHP extension (php_mongo.dll).

It's running fine on the server, and my code works, but I am missing intellisense on the Mongo (http://php.net/manual/en/book.mongo.php) classes that are defined in this extension.

I have tried finagling the DLL into the build path and include path, but Eclipse Intellisense is not recognizing the Mongo class constructor or other Mongo objects. This makes my dev work very painful.

Anyone help with getting Intellisense to recognize classes defined in DLLs?

Content Assist (you call it "Intellisense") is based on only php files in your project, PHP Include Path, PHP Language Library.

Try this for the present...for the present...
http://sourceforge.jp/projects/pdt-tools/releases/?package_i d=10756
Download mongophp.zip and extract it.
Create new PHP Project and copy mongo.php into it.
On your PHP Project, Configure Include Path/Projects/Add -> the project above.

BTW,
I don't know official method to create php files for ext modules and to extend language library...

Toshiro,
Thank you so much. Where did you get this PHP file? When I download the driver source from the Mongo Website, all I get is the C code with a makefile to compile.
