Keywords found in block comments are highlighted according to keyword coloring, not comment coloring about php-mode HOT 12 CLOSED

Sorry but I am unable to reproduce this. What version of Emacs and php-mode are you using? Also is there anything else around the comment, or does it just happen with the comment in isolation? I ask because I just want to make sure no error with highlighting code is spilling over into comments through error.

from php-mode.

GNU Emacs 23.4.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10) of 2012-09-09 on murphy, modified by Debian

Here's the code. In the comment "and" and "for" are treated as keywords.

    $locator = new Locator_Admin();
    register_activation_hook( __FILE__, array( $locator, 'activate' ));

    $locator = new Locator_Front();

Thank you for the information and the test case. We are using different versions of Emacs, so I will try to duplicate the problem using yours. Could you also please tell me the values you have for php-mode-version-number and php-mode-modified? You can either use C-h v or just look at the top of the php-mode.el file you are using.

from php-mode.

Here is that info -- sorry I didn't include it before.

(defconst php-mode-version-number "1.9"
  "PHP Mode version number.")

(defconst php-mode-modified "2012-12-20"
  "PHP Mode build date.")

from php-mode.

No problem, thanks for the info and bug report. It reminds me actually---I should add a command that automatically prints out all of the data that may be useful for debugging php-mode, like the things above.

Ok, just saw the issue happen in my stock version of php-mode as well, so it is not specific to your version.

Restarted emacs, and loaded your version, and did not see the problem.

So, something is happening during the course of using the plugin that is causing the syntax highlighting to stop working correctly. I'm not sure what it is. I will follow up if I get a better idea of a cause.

from php-mode.

Another note -- when this happens, it also affects highlighting in other modes. For example, I'll load my .emacs and comments are not correctly colored.

from php-mode.

Thank you for the updates @mitc0185

So it sounds like the problem is not with php-mode. But whatever it is, it can affect php-mode so I am still curious to figure out the cause. Is it possible for you to post your .emacs file somewhere? I am wondering if it is a conflict/issue caused by another library.

Here is my .emacs: http://pastebin.com/XEvvgwcD

I've upgraded Emacs to the latest version from GNU,

GNU Emacs 24.1.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10) of 2012-12-29 on hemingway

I haven't seen the issue re-occur with the new version.

from php-mode.

Thanks for posting. I don't see anything obvious there which would cause that problem. Since it sounds like the issue was outside of the scope of php-mode I am going to close this bug report, but please let me know if the same problem happens again now that you have upgraded Emacs itself.

from php-mode.

For anyone who's interested, I believe the issue here is probably due to web-mode:

fxbois/web-mode#13

I know I've seen this issue happen while using web-mode, and I see that mitc0185 uses it as well.

from php-mode.

@NateEag that's a good catch. Interesting that they closed that bug, but I was/am using a current version of web-mode.
