override return type in PHPDoc

Question

I have a class `Abc` with method (body is not important): ``` /** * @return SomeBaseClass */ function getAll() { ... } ``` In child class of `Abc` called `AbcChild` I'd like to redefine only type of returning class to see it properly in Netbeans. Can I do it without redefining method: ``` /** * @return SomeClass */ function getAll() { return parent::getAll(); } ```

Accepted Answer

Try something like this:

```
/**
 * @method SomeClass getAll()
 */
class AbcChild
{
 // ....
}
```
