How to develop a PHP project using Visual Studio

Developing PHP under Windows in addition to Notepad DW and a bunch of Zend Studio,eclipse,netbeans, personal feeling is vsiual studio+phptoole best. The main reason is speed. VS speed is really fast other IDE too much, whether from the start speed or the use of resources in the process is better than the other 3, after all, is Microsoft's own things.

There are two more famous PHP plugins vs.php and Phptools on Visual Studio 2013, The former basic only 2010 of the 2.6 version can be registered, and the new version has been out to 3.4 but no one cracked, the latter is Microsoft recommended 1.13, but 1.12 someone has done a certain job, can successfully register, but the installation needs some effort.

First, the computer is a Windows 8.1 64-bit version, double-click the installation of the MSI when the DLL is missing, had to start the command line Administrator version, under CMD to start the MSI installation successfully passed.

Next modify the hosts this system is the default hidden to the Control Panel and folder options to open the hidden system files, the file user group does not modify the permissions need to modify the full control, and then the properties of the read-only removed, added a line may need to restart to take effect, anyway, I was restarted.

Next start vs2013 will prompt registration, after the successful registration, wrote a few words of PHP ready to debug and hint Xdebug not well equipped

PHP basic configuration is not much to say put php5.5 under c:\php and then modify PHP.ini

Then add a similar configuration by default is 9000 port due to my other application occupation changed to 10000, and then succeeded, if not the line prompts you to fix, try a few more, wish everyone smooth

Xdebug.remote_enable = On
Xdebug.remote_handler = DBGP
