Howto add syntax checking for PHP

Post by fishnet_uk »

Hi,

I have just added PHP syntax checking to my PrimalScript and though I'd share how:

Download the version of PHP you require from www.php.netI chose the ZIP version of 4.4.4 because that what running on the server I'm working on.

Unzip the contents to C:php-4.4.4-Win32 (or somewhere else if you like but remember where you put it).

Goto

Tools > Options > Environment > Languages

and choose PHP.

Choose Compile / Syntax check

Browse for the php.exe program you just downloaded

In Arguments: add

-l "$File$"

thats: hiphen lower case L at the beggining, not a one. The quotes are there in case there is a space in the file path of your script.

Hit OK to save.

Hit CTRL-F7 in your script to check the syntax.

Maybe the developers can use this to add live syntax checking?

Regards

Ian
