Open File at Cursor command

Post by SiCo »

I have just started using Webuilder 2008 (9.0.0.96) after having used Webuilder 2007 and moving over to PhpDesigner 2008 (PHPD). The features in WB 2008 looked good and I've always prefered it, but required more helpful utilities, which leads me to the 'Open File at Cursor command' which is a feature of PhpDesigner I find indespensible.

The feature is good in WB, but only if you specify the complete path to the file, for example my code uses the include path. Which obviously doesn't get parsed by WB (or PHPD). PHPD overcomes this with a dialog representing the occurance of the object name in various files. This would be so useful as it makes coding in multiple files so easy. Also allowing Ctrl+Click to activate it would be good, but this may already be possible with shortcuts?

Code: Select all

// Initiate the Admin ACL plugin
require_once('SiCo/plugins/acl.php');
Tries to load c:\www\root\www\SiCo\plugins\acl.php when in fact it's located at c:\www\root\www\lib\SiCo\plugins\acl.php based on the PHP include path. It would help just being able to set include paths for each project.

Also the ability to view functions in their root file could be coupled with this.

So have I missed how the feature works? or can I suggest this as an addition? For me it would sway me back as otherwise I love the program and everything it does.

Thanks
Simon

Hey, Simon! Thanks for your suggestion. Ability to define library or include paths could be a solution. Currently indeed ther eis no way around it, if you have say file c:\mywebroot\index.php and it has an include of lib\plugin.php, the program will try to do the most logical thing, ti open c:\mywebroot\lib\plugin.php without analyzing anything else.

We will try to find a goof and easy solution for this.
