Description mfritsche 2013-06-07 09:27:06 UTC 
It would be nice if the new popup of the improved bracket matching function in NB7.3 (http://wiki.netbeans.org/NewAndNoteworthyNB73#Bracket_Matching) could show more than just the line with the opening bracket. If you are looking at code like


Foo::Foo():
        bar(200)
{
    doSomething();
    doMore();
...
}

and place your cursor at the last line it would be nice to see not just the "{" but also the lines above.

It would be great to at least show the other line - PHP fig standards PSR-0, PSR-1 and PSR-2 all indicate usage of braces on their own line in multiple instances.

"Opening braces for classes MUST go on the next line, and closing braces MUST go on the next line after the body."

"Opening braces for methods MUST go on the next line, and closing braces MUST go on the next line after the body."

"Opening braces for control structures MUST go on the same line, and closing braces MUST go on the next line after the body."

It doesn't need to be too advanced - simply showing the line above if only a "{" is detected should suffice for most use cases.

This is actually now possible, because I've added relevant SPI to brace matching in 7.4; but only implementation for java editor exists at the moment. Passing to PHP for evaluation
