Early Access Program

We continue to refine the IDE and work on plugin APIs. This build addresses both aspects by implementing a much requested feature purely relying on php-openapi. It required numerous adjustments - and much more are still pending, but we have a great progress. The generic Factory Method pattern support was added. By adding simple external metadata you can help IDE to deduce return types from the invocation arguments. This will reduce the number of required @var annotations in code employing the pattern, wich is quite common in modern frameworks. More info on using 

We are happy to announce the beginning of PhpStorm 6.0.1 Early Access Program and the build 129.91 is already available for download.

Please meet the new WebStorm 6 EAP build number 126.254. The changes worth mentioning include: The IDE will now highlight your JavaScript code according to the libraries that are configured for the file. This way you can now use libraries not only to filter the completion list, but also to clearly see what your code uses and be sure it won't fail in production as it calls a non-existing method from the library that was never supposed to be part of this project. So, if you suddenly get your code highlighted red, please make sure you've configured libraries correctly at File -> Settings

On PHP side we still focused on stability and bugfixes, with an important addition - ability to use PHPUnit provided in .phar or via composer dependency. And the Web team supplied a ton of new features: HTML Structure view, Emmet, File Watchers, etc. All of these is immediately available for download and via autoupdate.
