Description tprochazka 2008-09-12 05:56:54 UTC 
Eclipse PDT has great ability to force type of variable.

Example
/* @var $a blog_PageLayout */
$a->

Autocomplete heuristic will be handle with $a as with instance of blog_PageLayout class.

This is very useful when I use reflection, when heuristic can't determine right class.

Maybe Netbeans use different hint declaration. But I don't know them. But I think, that will be better support also 
this, for compatibility in team which use Eclipse PDT.
