PHP coding standards (8)_PHP tutorial
4.5 Documentation Comments
Documentation comments describe PHP classes, constructors, methods, and fields. Each documentation comment will be placed within the comment delimiter /**...*/, and one comment corresponds to a class or member. This comment should precede the declaration:
/**
* Explain some of this class
* Describe some aspects of this class...
*/
If you want to give information about a class, variable or method that is not suitable to be written in the documentation, you can use an implementation block comment (see 5.1.1) or a single-line comment immediately following the declaration ( See 5.1.2). For example, details about the implementation of a class should be placed in the implementation block comment immediately following the class declaration rather than in a documentation comment.
Documentation comments cannot be placed in the definition block of a method or constructor, because the program will associate the first declaration after the documentation comment with it.
Note that top-level classes are not indented, but their members are indented. The first line (/**) of a documentation comment describing a class does not need to be indented; subsequent lines of documentation comments are indented by 1 space (so that the asterisks are aligned vertically). The first line of documentation comments for members, including constructors, is indented 4 spaces, and each subsequent line is indented 5 spaces. If you want to give information about a class, variable or method that is not suitable to be written in the documentation, you can use an implementation block comment (see 5.1.1) or a single-line comment immediately following the declaration ( See 5.1.2). For example, details about the implementation of a class should be placed in the implementation block comment immediately following the class declaration rather than in a documentation comment.
