code assistance inside included file for a variable defined outside

Let's say I create an object in index.php and save the reference in the variable $obj. Late开发者_运维问答r in index.php I include/require a file req.php where I want to use a method of the object.

Is there a way to make Aptana 3.0.4 show me the available methods of the object when I type $obj-> inside req.php?

I.e. Aptana should recognize that the variable $obj is already defined higher in the file hierarchy and that it holds a reference to an object.

May be it helps if you add comment before the first var using

/* @var YOUR_CLASS */

The correct syntax in version 3.0.4 is like that:

/**
 * @var Foobar 
 */ 
$obj; // You have to call the variable here (redundant, I know)
$obj-> // will code assist the FooBar functions.

Since this is not that great of a syntax, I'm working on having additional support, like with the PDT special @var syntax:

/* @var $obj Foobar */
$obj-> // will code assist the FooBar functions.

Both should be supported in the Studio's next release.

Hope that helps
