Description ndwolf 2008-07-14 09:34:58 UTC

When you start to write for ex.  array_slice(   ...then a popup shows the args for array_slice
and thats ok. but, when i start to write inside the ()'s the popup disapears, and that is a big mistake.
I have to remember each parameter!
I like the way zend developer envoriment (zde) works. When you start to write inside the ()'s, the popup keep displaying
and it highlights the parameter you are typing.

I know you can press a key to autocomplete it in the editor, but it doesnrt work right, like when you autocomplete
things like ""'s or ()'s
and it is not very usefull, because it seems you are forced to use all paramteres or delete'em. very messy.

Is better the popup keep displaying with a highlight for every param.

I'm marking this as defect. The cc should be clever. The solution should be like in java. When you invoke cc through
CTRL+SPACE, then it should offer again the function with parameters and complete only missing part. The second things is
that if you press CTRP+P it shows small popup window with parameters. This is not code completion, but helps with it. I
attach screenshot.

Confirmed. Note that missing Ctrl+P action is already tracked as issue 132387.
