POLL: Which IDE do you use to develop PHP?

[Erwin Moller]

Hi group,

Just curious what IDEs are popular nowadays.

What do you expect from an IDE?
Debugging?
Do you use your IDE for debugging, or do you work like me? (Just use some
smart-placed var_dump() to dive into possible problems?)

Syntax highlightning?
Anything else?

I use Eclipse 2.1 with PHP-plugin.
Reason: It is for free and works fine.

Regards,
Erwin Moller

If it is my code, I use Emacs with some well placed var_dumps.

If someone else's code that I have to maintain (and it has HTML/PHP
mixed in), I use Anjuta.

Yes, debugging support is something that would make things easier. But
I usually survive by putting error_reporting (E_ALL).

I prefer debugging while running on the target system too (ie the
webhost) rather than locally (even though I sometimes test locally
using Apache first).

Yes. For documentation, I've put a direct shortcut to the php.net
search engine, so I get all in need in one line.

I don't need more :-)

Hi Erwin
My favorite is Maguma WorkBench. I think that this is the best decision
for a PHP IDE.

Up until about 2 days ago, I was using UltraEdit for all my PHP/HTML
work. Now I've started using Zend Studio to see if will make things any
easier for me. I do like the fact that as you are typing the function
protocols pop up and if you forget a semicolon, there is a visual hint
for you.

I use Quanta 3.3.0
Built-in docs for PHP
quick-key function complete
Highlighting (about 30 diff code styles)
Alot more.
Only 1 drawback I have found so far.
FTP Setup is something left to be desired.I am thus required to
maintain 2 copies of my site code. Not that this is a bad thing as far
as backups are concerned, just wish I could ftp straight from Quanta is
all.

I use PHPEdit from http://www.waterproof.fr/. It's free for personal use. It
is a full-fledged IDE with a debugger.

I think my setup is not very popular.

I use GNU screen, vim, bash, and (sometimes) ELinks.
I prefer to make all my functions (I still don't do OOP) work for
command-line use and add the HTML at the highest possible level (usually
the scripts that are "callable" from the user's browser). So my
functions use a lot of arrays and I use print_r() to debug them.

Syntax highlighting is on, but I only consciously notice with when I
forget to close quotes around some text.

I use BBEdit 8.0 (commercial text editor) on Mac OS X.
<http://www.barebones.c om/products/bbedit/index.shtml>.

I also have Apache/PHP/MySQL running locally on my machine, the web
serving part is an exact copy of the production webserver, apart from
error_reporting and stuff like that.

BBEdit is not an IDE as such, but I find that a few well-placed
print_r()'s and var_dump()'s are good enough for me.

I've gone a little more "cutting edge" lately and have been using gvim.
