Eclipse “must-have” development tools/plugins for PHP

eclipse, favorites, php, plugins

Solution

As a PHP developper, mainly back-end, I'm using :

- Eclipse PDT for PHP development

- It's one of the best free IDE for PHP, I think

- Integration with Xdebug for debugging os pretty nice, too ;-)

- Subversive for SVN integration

- Aptana (plugged into PDT) for HTML/CSS/JS

- Filesync (My project is on a Virtual Machine, which exports its files via a samba share ; this can take lots of time (several minutes) when re-building the project ; Filesync helps a lot with that)

About Eclipse, you can find lots of questions/answers about plugins ; some of them apply to PHP, too.

Aside from Eclipse, I also generally have a lightweight editor (like scite, or vim -- depending on the platform I'm working on) ; it's easier to take notes.

Problem

According to this post, i ask $title. Which are your favorite PHP coding related Eclipse plugins? Without you can't live? Why? I list my own plugins of choice: - Eclipse PDT - Mylyn - Subclipse Which are yours?
