Introduction

PHP IDE project is based on WTP project in terms of architecture using the Eclipse plugin mechanism. Many of the features in PHP IDE are decoupled from the WTP and others depend on WTP features.

Integration Points

  • Editor - PHP IDE editor is based on WTP editor and by that get for free syntax highlighting and code assist of HTML code. The structure of the editor is an XML editor and is broke into XML elements. The PHP section is another XML element inside the WTP/XML editor.
  • Outline - PHP IDE outline provides two layouts of outlines. One is the HTML outline which provides structure view of the HTML code and the second layout is PHP layout which includes the different PHP elements in group structure of classes, functions, constants and includes files.
