If I add doc comments to my method like this: /** * @return int * The return value */ public function myMethod() { ... } Then the "hint" that appears when I hold CTRL and hover over a call to that method looks like this: Returns: Type: int The Description: return value But if I put the description on the same line, it works properly: /** * @return int The return value */ public function myMethod() { ... } Returns: Type: int Description: The return value Shouldn't NetBeans allow me to format my doc comments either way?
It's reproducible. That annotation parser doesn't handle these multi-line descriptions. It's not a common use case.
Reproductible in 8.2rc / Dev 201609210002 In case of multi lines @return, all the phpdoc is now not displayed => P3
