PHP Checker

[lentin64]

anyone know where to find a PHP Checker to check PHP Scripts, for example: It would alert you if you got a Parse error or Warning or Fatal Error and will select the invalid code/line.

Uhm... PHP does that for you. You don't need any special program.

Yes, syntax errors can be checked that way (though it is not handy, because you have to access the page).

However simple stuff like whether $user->getName() is allowed (meaning does the class of which $user is an instance has a function getName). For this you wont get an error until that line of code is actually executed.

I myself am thinking about making such a tool as my final assignment for my study (Computing Science at the University of Nijmegen, the Netherlands). Can any of you tell me if such a tool (tool that does syntax and some semantic checks) is wanted by the community??
