Aptana content assist, DOMDocument PHP

I have something like:

$elements = $document->query(...);
foreach ($elements as $element) {
    $element -> //I want content assist
}

But Aptana (Studio 3, build: 3.5.0.201401092130) is not giving me the content assist. if I do something like 

$e = new DOMNode();
$e -> //content assist

then I'm getting the content assist.

How can I get it to work on the $element in the foreach?

Solution

  • I'm not an Aptana user but most decent IDEs allow type hinting with this syntax:

    foreach ($elements as $element) {
    /* @var $element DOMNode */
    $element -> //I want content assist
}

    ... or, some times, this variation:

    foreach ($elements as $element) {
    /* @var DOMNode $element  */
    $element -> //I want content assist
}
