Correct Syntax Flagged as Incorrect [message #72095] Wed, 28 May 2008 16:18 Go to next message

Originally posted by: pete.holiday.gmail.com

I'm starting to use Eclipse with PDT and one thing that immediately struck
me is that the supposed syntax error checking is having some problems.
It's finding errors where there are none, and nothing I've done has been
able to get them to go away.

I've been able to get the red underlines to go away (via "report as you
type") but I can't get the red Xs in the sidebar (or the PHP Explorer) to
disappear. Here's an example of code it claims to have syntax errors:
(errors supposedly found on each line but the first one)

<?php
class Expo_Acl extends Zend_Acl {
public function __construct() { }
}

(Note that this syntax is correct, it works properly when executed, and
everything else is peachy... but PDT seems to think that there's something
horribly wrong with it)

I'm sure there's something I've done wrong here, but at this point I
really would just like to turn syntax checking off because it doesn't seem
to work very well with Zend Framework anyway. If there's a way to get it
working that would work as well. Any help would be appreciated.

I had been doing "Clean projects selected below" and that didn't do
anything. I just tried "Clean all projects" and that worked for some
reason... why one worked and not the other is beyond me (yes, I had the
one project I've created selected).

Now it seems that when I turn everything back on it's working properly.

Thanks!

Smells like a bug.

If you can consistently reproduce it, please report it.

I would think the steps to reproduce are something like this:

0. install eclipse + PDT (state specific versions of Eclipse, WTP, PDT,
and Java)
1. create PDT project
2. create php file
3. type in file contents
4. save file
5. clean project (errors persist)
6. clean ALL projects (errors vanish)

If you have any specific settings turned on/off that differ from the out
of box settings, detail them too.
