I know there have been a couple of posts going to that direction but I still didn't get my problem solved. After updating to Leopard and Xcode 3 I am missing code completion (PHP and Actionscript 3 in this case) like I had in Xcode 2.

I already searched the archives to get to know how to create spec files etc. So I came across this post from Dave:

http://lists.apple.com/archives/xcode-users/2008/Jan/msg00158.html

To sum up what is need for a good workflow using a language that has no built in support in Xcode:

.xclangspec file -> just define basic language specifications (blocks, class, method declaration etc.)
.xctxtmacro -> has some nice macros for if..else statements or for/ while loops etc.
.xccompletion -> what is this whole thing about? I cant find anything about this.


Where do I store the index of methods etc. that ship with PHP and the Flash/Flex/AIR framework in my case. And how does this have be done?

Would appreciate any help.

Xcode 3.0 does not index anything other than C, C++, Objective-C, and Java source code files.


However, you may be able to add a list of methods that will be utilized by code completion via our "bridgesupport" mechanism.

I'm not an expert on it, but here's what I get when I search on it in the xcode-users list:

Here is the gen_bridge_metadata man page:

Here is another document that might help, Generating Framework Metadata:
