RE: [pdt-dev] code assist development

2009-10-22 Thread Sjaak Eenhuis 

Currently, pdt doesn't indicate if a certain function parameter is required or 
optional. As I understand from 
http://doc.php.net/php/dochowto/chapter-skeletons.php you provide this 
information allready.

So visually indicating what is required and what not is something which can be 
accomplished already by the pdt developers.

However, as far as I can see the docbook sources don't contain the actual 
default value of such an optional parameter. This would come in handy, in cases 
like

string htmlspecialchars
( string $string
   [, int $quote_style = ENT_COMPAT
   [, string $charset
   [, bool $double_encode = true
  ]]] )

If I want to use htmlspecialchars
with ENT_NOQUOTES I want to see whether I need to override the default of 
$quote_style.
I've encoutered this type of issues more than once and this info is imho useful 
enough to have it.

I am curious about your opinions.

 Hello,
 
 The PHP manual is interested in making the data more friendly to PDT.  
 Please describe exactly how PDT gathers data for 'code assist' so that  
 we can test and help make the process a little easier. Like, do you  
 parse the XML sources? How? What problems do you run into?
 
 Regards,
 Philip

The generated PHP language model does contain an indication about optional
parameters in PHPDoc and using parameter initializer (if you open
standard.php you'll see it). The problem is that Code Assist doesn't really
use this information to present it in a fancy style that you mentioned. We
can fix it in the future.
