"String" to be considered as "string" in PHPDoc annotations

MaximeFandard

Hi,

Some PHP libraries like HTML2PDF that use PHPDoc type annotations have string type annotations as "String" instead of "string", which is then considered as a class instead of a primitive string by PHP Tools and adds a warning when calling methods/functions.

Would it be risky or not to consider "String" as being "string"? As far as I understand, "string" in any lower or upper case cannot be used as a class name and is considered as reserved word.

Thanks

MaximeFandard Thank you for the suggestion, that's a good point.

We will change the phpdoc type keywords to case-insensitive as you suggested. That's the correct semantic as far as I know.
