Re: coding standards: Header Comment Blocks

Would be nice if a usage example could be there too (ok, at least in the case of light classes). Tomas V.V.Cox Daniel Convissor wrote:

Hello: Klaus raised an interseting point on IRC regarding Header Comment Blocks. For phpDocumentor to work correctly, we really need to have a page-level docblocks. The current standard requires a regular comment at the top of each file: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/standards.header.php Can we please modify the standard to make the header comments to be in docblock format? I'd suggest the following for a standard file: /** * Short description for file * * Long description... * * PHP version 4 or 5 * * This source file is subject to version 3.0 of the PHP license, * that is bundled with this package in the file LICENSE, and is * available through the world-wide-web at the following URI: * http://www.php.net/license/3_0.txt. * If you did not receive a copy of the PHP license and are unable to * obtain it through the world-wide-web, please send a note to * license@php.net so we can mail you a copy immediately. * * @category categoryname * @package packagename
