PHP autocomplete mode

PHP autocomplete mode

[jmckitrick]

Hi all,

I'm trying to get emacs to have the same level of autocompletion as a
colleague running Zend Studio.  I can't seem to get etags to pick up
all the class member functions, and I can't get the basic php
functions to autocomplete either.  I have auto-complete.el and init-
auto-complete.el, and I have php-manual-path pointing to ~/Documents/
html where the php manual has been downloaded.

What else do I need to do?

Thanks!

Will the eclim mode with company-mode work here too Tassilo?

I just tried eclipse again after a long period. Wow. It has to be said,
emacs is pretty in the stone age in a lot of areas. The entire "project"
handling is pretty damn cool in elcipse.

No.  As far as I know eclim currently only supports Java.  Otherwise it
would work fine (with small modifications maybe).

CEDET seems to have a contributed PHP back-end.  That would be the best
bet.  If anyone using that contacts me, I'll gladly make the required
modifications to the Semantic back-end in company-mode.

Thanks for the info. If using semantic there's no need for company since
it already has its own.

That's a pity. Seems an awful waste of eclipse potential.
