unused methods

StuardoRodriguez

I see the private unused methods are dimmed, but only private methods. That's not the case for protected nor public methods, even if we can see there are 0 references to them

Can we dim private and public methods too?

Thank you

StuardoRodriguez implemented in the upcoming update, thanks!

JakubMisek

We'll revert to showing only unused private functions. There is too much dynamicity going on, and we would report too many false positives.

JakubMisek I saw that with the public methods for controller->actions called by Laravel routes. I understand. Thank you.

JakubMisek

StuardoRodriguez yes, there is more; for example, 'scope' methods in Eloquent/Laravel, which are protected. Additionally, we need to track any indirect method call, for example, $this->$foo or use of reflection, and mark all the methods on $this as potentially used.

I think other IDEs are ahead of us, but we'll keep improving on that.
