+### New: PhpStorm Meta for Container instances
+
+It's possible to generate a PhpStorm meta file, to [add support for factory design pattern](https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/PhpStorm/PhpStorm+Advanced+Metadata). For Laravel, this means we can make PhpStorm understand what kind of object we are resolving from the IoC Container. For example, `events` will return ann `Illuminate\Events\Dispatcher` object, so with the meta file you can call `app('events')` and it will autocomplete the Dispatcher methods.

qufo	3113f58f45	Update ModelsCommand.php , Add COMMENT info. When define a class(table) , we will add some comment information to the property (field), the comment information was useful for coder who has bad memory.so ,I think we'd better show the comment at the end of * @property line. I'm a Chinese, most of my team was Chinese too, the comment information was written by Chinese, so , it's helpful! －－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－当我们定义一个类(表)的时候，我们会给对象(字段)加上一些注释信息，这些注释信息对记忆力不好的程序员很有用，所以我认为我们可以在属性行的尾部加入注释信息我是个中国人，我团队中的大部分人也是中国人，这些注释信息是中文写的，对他们很有帮助。	2015-01-08 17:28:00 +08:00
