Hi,

Kdevelop 5.2.2 and earlier have a problem with parsing php code when file contains namespace/variable 'String'.

Code: Select all

<?php
namespace Joomla\String;



or

Code: Select all

public function bind($key = null, &$value = null, $dataType = ParameterType::STRING, $length = 0, $driverOptions = array())


Kdevelop for above example on popup show me:

Code: Select all

Note: After I change 'STRING' to 'STRINGx' then everything start work again (the coloured code comes back) but it is not a solution.

Please help.

Is there any tutorial how to start contribution?
I suppose there is a bug in kdev-php/parser/php.g but I do not understand such parser language.

Where is the correct place to create a pull request?

Hi,

the .g files are grammar files for the kdev-pg-qt parser generator. You should be able to find some documentation on that on the internet.

Contributions are very welcome! The best place to submit patches is on phabricator.kde.org.

Best,
Sven

I do not see a solution to fix that.

I only can say that kdevelop shows errors for lines:

Code: Select all

use Joomla\String\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Float\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Int\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Array\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Void\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Bool\StringHelper;
...


but not for:

Code: Select all

use Joomla\Boolean\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Integer\StringHelper;
use Joomla\Yield\StringHelper;


`Void` and `Yield` are mentioned in https://github.com/KDE/kdev-php/blob/ma ... php.g#L241

but `void` is also at:
https://github.com/KDE/kdev-php/blob/16 ... #L911-L922

I do not have enough experience or skills to find out more.
