Aptana won't generate phpdoc blocks for functions within classes

Question

In Aptana, I have somehow broken the functionality to auto-generate phpdoc comments for functions within classes. It appears to only affect my current project.

Normally I can type /** on the line before a function and press enter, and Aptana will create a phpdoc comment with the correct @param values, etc. For some reason when I do this now Aptana creates 2 comments, one within the other. e.g.

/**
* /**
*
*/
*/
public static function getByLogin($loginID, $ip, $userAgent) {

}

It works normally if I try this for global functions. It also works for class variables and classes themselves.

Answer 1

I fixed this by right clicking the project then configure -> add php support. I don't understand how php support got removed, or how phpdoc was working on global functions without it, but it's fixed now.
