PHP Eclipse

Edit, run, test, debug and deploy PHP applications.

Download PHP Eclipse 1.1.9.CVS-20060920 for EasyEclipse 1.2.2:

PHPeclipse is a complete development tool for PHP, with support for editing (including formatting and beautifying code, syntax completion, and more), navigating through code outline, code templates, running and debugging. Although the complete configuration requires some work because of the variety of the tools to install, it is worth the work.

Installing this plugin

This plugin is in the EasyEclipse for LAMP and EasyEclipse for PHP distributions.

You can also install it on any EasyEclipse distribution, because it has no dependencies.

To use this plugin, you need XAMPP: Recommended Apache, PHP, Perl and MySQL distribution and installer.

Getting started

Help is available for this plugin, in the Help > Help Contents menu in EasyEclipse.

To start with PHPEclipse, you must at least install the Apache web server (1.3 or 2.0), and PHP (4.4.2, 5.1.2 or more recent). If you do not have any of them, it is probably easier to install XAMPP (see the Requirements section below).

Then, you will find short introduction on setting up a project and running it in this discussion thread.

To use the debugger, you must add the DBG Debugger to your PHP installation. Get it from its download page. You only need the server-side component ("dbg modules for php"). Note that the DBG Debugger is not available for MacOS in binary form: you will have to compile it yourself for your machine. Clear instructions are available on this thread.

Tests

(Notes that tests are only displayed if the page is served statically)

Passing:

on MacOS: 
        - install PHP from here: http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/php/. This may mean (I\'m not sure it\'s needed) editing the /etc/httpd/httpd.conf by adding:
        LoadModule php5_module /usr/local/php5/libphp5.so
        
        <IfDefine !APACHE2>
        AddModule mod_php5.c
        </IfDefine>
        <IfModule mod_php5.c>
        # If php is turned on, we repsect .php and .phps files.
        AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
        AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
        
        # Since most users will want index.php to work we
        # also automatically enable index.php
        <IfModule mod_dir.c>
        DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
        </IfModule>
        </IfModule>
        - add the workspace to the settings:
        Alias /eclipse "/private/tmp/phpeclipse-1.1.9.CVS-20060920/"
        <Directory "/private/tmp/phpeclipse-1.1.9.CVS-20060920/">
        Options Indexes MultiViews
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        </Directory>
        - in eclipse, new project, new file, paste:
        <?php
        $msg = "This is a message";
        phpinfo();
        
        $aThings = array(\'one\', \'two\', \'three\');
        foreach ($aThings as $value) {
        print $msg . \' - \' . $value . \' \'; 
        }
        
        - in Eclipse, preference, PHP Web Development > Project Default, set "Localhost" to "http://localhost/eclipse"
        - reedit and save the file, should appear in included browser
        
        *** to set up the debugger: ***
        - download and extract the dbg module sources for the server part (DBG 2.13.1 module sources) from http://dd.cron.ru/dbg/downloads.php
        - untar, build them by running:
        ./configure --enable-dbg=shared --with-dbg-profiler --with-php-config=/usr/bin/php-config --prefix=/usr/local/php4/
        make
        - at the end of the build, should give you the location of "dbg.so". Keep this info
        - Find php.ini with: find / -name \'*php*.ini\'
        if not found, create one in /private/etc/php.ini (or /etc/php.ini ? not sure)
        - Paste this in php.ini:
        [debugger]
        extension=/path/to/dbg.so
        debugger.enabled=on
        debugger.profiler_enabled=on
        debugger.ports=7869, 10000/16
        
        where \'/path/to/dbg.so\' is the path at compilation
