Usage with Symfony Projects

    ide: 'netbeans://open?file=%%f&line=%%l&/var/www/app/>/projects/my_project/'

Usage

It can be used to open files at the specified line from within the browser by placing a link of the following kind in the markup:

<?php
$file = "/path/to/filename.php";
$line = 35;
print "<a href='netbeans://open?url=file://$file&line=$line'>Open with Netbeans</a>";
print "<a href='netbeans://open?file=$file&line=$line'>Open with Netbeans</a>";
?>

Command-line usage

FILE="/path/to/filename.php"
LINE=35
./netbeans-url-handler "netbeans://open?url=file://${FILE}&line=${LINE}"

This alternative syntax matches the format used by Netbeans for the Macintosh for cross-platform compatibility.

FILE="/path/to/filename.php"
LINE=35
./netbeans-url-handler "netbeans://open?file=${FILE}&line=${LINE}"
