I think this cannot be resolved, because you could do a
$entityManager->find($_POST['ugly']);
There, what's the returned class? (Year, NEVER do such thing, but you get the idea: the name in the call can be dynamic).
If you want to get auto-completion in the calling, you should just use the PHPDoc syntax:
/* @var $myvar \vendor\namespace\MyClass */
$myvar = $entityManager->find("MyClass);
There, NB 8.2 will know that the $myvar variable contains a MyClass instance, and it will provide all required hints.
If that suits your needs (after all these years!), tell us so this bug can be closed.

Hello, This is (in my opinion), one of the most important features that NetBeans MUST have. Using Doctrine or many many other APIs allow developers to have some methods like : <?php class EntityManager { /** * @return $classname */ public function find($classname) { return new $classname; } } ?> so that when you call $entityManager->find("MyClass"); it would return an instance of MyClass, there's no such thing as @return $classname (or return instance of class that is a string). It's so boring not having the pop-up that shows the available methods from the class we've passed in variables. I know it must be hard, but it's just resolving a string to a class name, and then suggesting the available internal methods and stuff.
