CodeIgniter Text Editor

[eluser]$ilovephp[/eluser]
I am tired using gEdit as my text editor in developing a website with CodeIgniter. Is there any text editor that is specially created for codeIgniter? If there is, could any one share it here please?

There is no IDE created specifically for CodeIgniter, as that would be pretty damn pointless. CodeIgniter is PHP with a fair chunk of OOP inheritance. The best IDE to represent that (which I have used) is NetBeans.

Currently 6.8 supports a fair deal of auto-complete and you can add more CodeIgniter specific support yourself. 7.0 will support auto-complete for almost all the CodeIgniter framework out of the box.

I wrote an article on why you should try NetBeans.

I am using PHPDesigner.

I am using phpDesigner as well. Parses all of the files, and provides auto hints/completions. Like Phil mentioned, I have good hopes for Netbeans 7.0. With 6.8, I wish I didn't have to use a "hack" to declare each method for code completion to work. I would also be nice if Netbeans didn't create it's own folder inside of each project.

Try use E-texteditor, then just google for a codeigniter bundle, dont think there is a newere bundle then 1.6.3 right now , but seems to work quite good..
e-texteditor is the windows choise for mac's textmate

You can make NetBeans put its own folder somewhere other then within the project folder when creating the project.
Also you can sometimes help code-completion along using PHPDoc comments with each function, which I wouldn't consider "hacking". Though I would agree it's far from perfect.

Thanks for the folder tip Jelmer. Maybe I'll revisit Netbeans again. PHPDoc comments are a must. It's certainly handy when you do some maintenance on some code, and have the comments pop up are helpful to knock off the rust, or save time looking up the API.

I personally use Aptana. Not the newer version that requires the PDT plugin, but Aptana 1.5, with Aptana's built in PHP plugin. You might be able to find the plugin as a separate download to it.
