PhpStorm 7.1 update released: Search Everywhere, Lens Mode, SVN 1.8, Bug Fixes, Improvements & more
It’s only been a few months since the release of PhpStorm 7 but we’re glad to announce a fresh update – let it be our present for upcoming holidays.
PhpStorm 7.1 update brings a bunch of features, bug fixes and improvements for PHP & web related technologies, as well as all changes from the significantly improved IntelliJ IDEA 13 platform.
Download PhpStorm 7.1 right now!
On the PHP side:
- Exception breakpoints and Xdebug jit option support
- Full Doctrine-style PHP Annotations support via updated Open API
- A way to document mixins regardless of PHP version: PhpStorm will interpret @mixin annotation the same way as actual “use trait” – see WI-1730
- VCS-friendly Deployment configs: deployment mappings and excluded paths are now saved in .idea/deployment.xml. They are mapped to servers by names, see WI-715 for more information
- Clickable @link URLs in editor
- Special treatment for protected member access on @var-declared $this in Views
- Parameter name suggestion based on its type name
- and many other bug fixes and improvements.
On the web side:
- Mocha framework integration
- Improved support for Dart language
- LESS 1.5.0 is supported

PhpStorm 7.1 update bring you completely in sync with the recently released IntelliJ IDEA 13 platform, delivering a lot of fixes, improvements and features, such as:
- Search Everywhere
We are sure you are taking advantage of Navigate to Class/File/Symbol, Find Action and other advanced navigation features, but why not use a brand new powerful Search Everywhere to find a class, file, action or even an IDE setting always using the same action?
Just try it with the icon
on the top-right or invoke it with Double-Shift.
- Lens Mode
Hover the mouse over a warning, error strip or just some section on the scroll bar, and PhpStorm shows you the source code fragment annotated with the warning/error message.
- The new PhpStorm interface is even more minimalistic and functional with the toolbar and tool window buttons hidden by default. You can always invoke View | Toolbar and View | Tool Buttons (or just icon
on the left-bottom) if you would like to get it back.
- Speed Search
The new Speed Search makes it easier for you to navigate over the items thanks to highlighting matches.
- Navigate to folder
You can navigate to a folder just as quickly as to a file, by using Navigate to File action.
- Better performance with faster Find Usages and Navigate to Actions, and more responsive editor during indexing. Frequently used symbols now appear in the results of Find Usages faster than before.
- Find in Strings and Comments: take advantage of improved Find in Path action with ability to look through comments and String literals (you can search over the project using specific scopes).
- New fast and powerful log viewer for Git and Mercurial.
- Support for Subversion 1.8 (via the native client).
- Even more Database tools and SQL support improvements.
- Retina support in JDK 7 (more information).
- and much more… (see IntelliJ IDEA 13 what’s new page for more information)
