Eclipse PDT (php) 2.0

Code complete for html

No code complete for php

It looks awesome and it has code complete for html. However there is no php code complete. It says there is php code assist which I thought that this was. Also Aptana is built on PDT and has php code complete, so you would figure that it would be found in the PDT.

Maybe there is a setting or something. I tried to enable it. I have gotten used to not having code complete with Textmate, so its not that a big deal. The other features are impressive enough to use it. I’m getting sick of having to deal with textmate’s invisible temporary files that showup in svn.

If someone knows how to get code completion working for PDT please let me know. I don’t think I should (or work) have to pay aptana $100 just to have code completion.

I downloaded a stable version of 2.1, but didn’t get a chance to try it this morning. Ended up redownloading the Zend version of PDT that comes with a debugger, since that might come in handy. So now we have 3 different versions of PDT on our file server at work.
