I got a real problem with Komodo Edit v8.5.3: I use XAMPP XAMPP v1.8.3 [PHP: 5.5.6] to provide a local hosted server for Komodo.
[Edit -> Preferences -> Languages -> PHP] ; here I configured the PHP stuff like this:
**Default PHP Interpreter** C:\xampp\php\php.exe
**Path to alternate PHP configuration file** C:\xampp\php\php.ini
**PHP Directories** nothing
After restarting I tested this feature: But no autocomplet and calltips, syntax checking did sometimes work ... If I wrote some code, it began to scan the php directory of XAMPP for completing, but this search got freezed everytime somewhere (in the PEAR directory).
I don't really understand what's wrong with Komodo and XAMPP. (I did also reinstall Komodo.)
Komodo is great, but withoutd this the most importent feature is impossible.
