I use PhpStorm for a while now, and it\'s code inspection and syntax highlighting is great! To further extend this feature, I am looking for a way to alert myself of \'debug
Install and use Php Inspections (EA Extended) plugin
Once installed -- Settings/Preferences | Editor | Inspections
One of the inspections this plugin provides called Forgotten debug statements
-- find it there (hint: there is a search field -- use it)
This inspection will highlight some standard debug related functions + you can add your own function names.
P.S.
This inspection works with PHP functions only -- it will not find constructions like echo '
.',print($var),'
'
BTW -- why don't you try Xdebug/Zend Debugger for a proper debug experience?
