CodeIgniter support on netbeans 8.0

Question

I am new in codeIgniter and trying to do the project in netbeans 8.0. The problem is, I can't download the plugin for codeigniter support. It shows some error like

"Some plugins require plugin PHP Annotation API to be installed."

I checked here for a solution and got this - "http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/184716/"

but the thing which I need is this - "http://alielwafdy.wordpress.com/2012/07/28/codeigniter-support-in-netbeans/".

this supports only up to netbeans 7.3.1

what should I do for netbeans 8.0. Please help

I already checked this question. But it is of Netbeans Version - 7. I am asking this question to find if there is an option in Netbeans 8, So this is not a duplicate

Alternate way,

• Create folder "CI_Auto_Complete" in outside the project. (ie. like anther project)
• place a php file called "CI_AUTO_COMPLETE.php",

• copy and paste the code from http://blog.bobbyallen.me/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/netbeans_autocomplete_codeigniter.txt

• Add "CI_Auto_Complete" folder to the include path.

• Right on click pjt --> properties --> include path --> Add folder.
