Important! PhpStorm EAP builds are not fully tested and may be unstable.Please see the release notes for the complete list of changes in the EAP #2 build. The other way around, you can use a PhpStorm quick-fix Alt+Enter to generate object shapes in a PHPDoc comment or an # attribute for the objects that already have properties assigned to them.

The syntax is supported for nested objects as well. Now you can define the structure of an arbitrary object in a PHPDoc comment, and PhpStorm will parse the object shape and display a code completion tooltip during assignment of object properties. While you would normally define objects via declared properties, you may also need proper code completion for dynamic properties with classes like stdClass or functions like _get()/ _set() or json_decode(). In this release, we are adding the ability to define the structure of generic objects via shape annotation, similar to how it is done for array shapes. You can also manually download the EAP builds from our website. The Toolbox App is the easiest way to get the EAP builds and keep your stable and EAP versions up to date. This blog post will cover support for object shape annotations that improve code completion for dynamic objects. The third build of our Early Access Program for PhpStorm 2023.2 is now available!
