How to get intellisense for PHP associative array index?

Whenever I type $_SERVER[''] and hit Ctrl + Space it gives me the list of possible indexes. How can I make it possible to array's I've created?


Solution

  • The code completion for $_SERVER gives you hints on the typical values people get out of that associative array. It is hard-coded somewhere in the NetBeans source code. For an arbitrary array, NetBeans has no idea of the keys that are used in any array, and thus does not provide hints there. It is even possible to proof that it is impossible to reliably implement such a feature, so I think you are out of luck here.
