comments between else and if (undefined variable suppression) confuses "missing braces" and "empty block" inspections

[iakoder]

<?php

$defined_var = 1;

if ( $defined_var > 5) {
    $defined_var++;
} else if ( $undefined_var < 0) {
    $defined_var++;
}

Correctly reports the undefined variable in the else/if clause.

Suppress for statement.

<?php

$defined_var = 1;

if ( $defined_var > 5) {
    $defined_var++;
} else /** @noinspection PhpUndefinedVariableInspection */
    if ( $undefined_var < 0) {
    $defined_var++;
}

Now you get "Missing or empty conditionals group statement: Wrap constructs' body within a block" and "Statement has empty body"

It's possible to suppress those and now the else/if looks like this:

<?php

$defined_var = 1;

if ( $defined_var > 5) {
    $defined_var++;
}
/** @noinspection MissingOrEmptyGroupStatementInspection */
/** @noinspection PhpStatementHasEmptyBodyInspection */
else /** @noinspection PhpUndefinedVariableInspection */ if ( $undefined_var < 0) {
    $defined_var++;
}
