CI plugin for eclipse

[quote author="gvdvenis" date="1218863568"]In my case the code completion mainly works, but i suspect that the lack of useful completion hints is due to the architecture of the loading mechanism CI uses. for example:

Code:

class Album extends Controller {
    function Album()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        $this->load->model('album_model', 'AlbumModel', TRUE);
        $this->AlbumModel->GetSomeRecords(); //<- this doesn't autocomplete and AFAIK there is no IDE that handles this situation.
    }

Please correct me if I'm wrong! When using this load mechanism there is no way of getting the code completion to work.

Just to be curious: Why was this approach taken instead of for example this "more common way" of doing things:

Code:

class Album extends Controller {
    
    protected $AlbumModel;

    function Album()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        $this->AlbumModel = new model('album_model', TRUE);
        $this->AlbumModel->GetSomeRecords(); //<- doing things this way will trigger codecompletion...
    }

Anyone any ideas/comments?[/quote]

hey guys, today I try to do autocomplete in eclipse 3.5 to load the function from a model, it works for me

in the controller file I added this:

Code:

class Companies extends Controller {
            
    
    function __construct()
    {
        parent::Controller();
        session_start();
        $this->output->enable_profiler(FALSE);
        $this->MCompanies = new MCompanies;   //MCompanies is a model            
    }
    
    function index()
    {
        $this->MCompanies-> //ctrl+space list out all the function in the model
    }

I not sure got what disadvantage, feel free to discuss
