Is it possible to use DocBlocks with dreamweaver cs5?

Question

I like documenting php with netbeans, but it doesn't seem to work with dreamweaver cs5.

Answer 1

As you are writing a function in PHP, Dreamweaver does not automatically add any comments such as DocBlocks to the code. You can add them yourself quite easily, I'd suggest adding a Snippet with the basics of a DocBlock.

Dreamweaver can pop up code hints for PHP functions; it gleans what should be presented to the user from the actual PHP code itself, that is from the function signature, not from any comments associated with the function. See this video that show a bit of PHP hints. So it seems that for what it appears that your trying to ask: no, you do not get code hints from DocBlock in Dreamweaver, but you do get PHP code hints.
