While working with a PHP project and updating an interface while the implementing class is open in a different tab, I often encounter that the implementation is invalidated due to changes in the signature of the method (e.g parameter type is changed). The implementation gets an annoying red underline also even if the method is renamed.

If I restart the editor then the method is no longer marked as invalid. This leads me to believe that the resolution of the contract is stale or outdated. Actually, I just discovered that if I wait for a while (e.g while writing this question and going back to make a screen shot), then the interface is resolved correctly. Thus I think that some indexing process in PhpStorm is running in the background.

My question is: How can I trigger the interface <-> implementation resolution at whim or increase the frequency of those periodic re-scans.

The filesystem is ext4, mounted locally:

/dev/mapper/balmora-root on / type ext4 (rw,noatime,data=ordered)

PhpStorm is 9.0.2

  • Does simple `File | Synchronize...` makes any difference? Or `Code | Inspect Code...` on such file(s)? – LazyOne Sep 24 '15 at 13:10

Please try File | Synchronize... to force IDE re-reading project files looking for changes.

If it does not help -- use Code | Inspect Code... on problematic file(s) to force full re-parse of such file(s).
