PHPDoc autocompletion [message #88250]

Hi,

can one change the behaviour of PHPDoc autocompletion?

The old 1.x behaviour suited much more my and the needs of some
colleagues. What I exactly mean is that it's autocompleted like this:

/**
* Insert desc...
* @param $myVar
* @return unknown_type
*/
public function myFunc($myVar){}

which was in 1.x:

/**
* Insert desc...
* @param unknown_type $myVar
*/
public function myFunc($myVar){}

It was much more comfortable that "unknown_type" was placed before the var
and @return only was injected if there was a return-statement present.

Further on sometimes (when overwriting methods or implementing abstract
ones, don't know exactly) there is a @see with and in brackets
(no-PHP-Doc) and no other autocompletion.

Thanks,
flo

Okok...I found something under PHP->Code Style->Code Templates.
Is there anywhere a description about the variables you can place there?
E.g. what ${tags} is replaced with or what else I can use.

Thanks!

They should be in the Insert Variable dialog, but I see that they are
not. You could create a bug for this.

Hi -

Is there any possibility someone could post a list of the available
variables in the meantime?

Thanks
Tim

Did a bug get created for this? The default phpdoc autocomplete for
functions is not as useful in PDT 2 as it was in PDT 1 as is.

I also noticed it does not auto-complete the type for method parameters,
if type-hinting is used now. PDT 1 did this successfully.
