What's new in 0.9.0

Added - Macro hover shows origin and inferred return types. Hovering on a macro method call now displays a "macro" indicator instead of the generic "virtual" label, distinguishing ::macro() registrations from @method/@mixin synthesized members. When the closure has no explicit return type hint, the return type is inferred from the closure body and shown with an "(inferred)" annotation. Bare $this / self / static returns preserve their keyword form, and method chains like $this->transform(...) use the last method's declared return type directly, preserving $this, static, and generic parameters that the general resolver would flatten to a bare class name. Regular (non-macro) methods with inferred return types also show the "(inferred)" annotation on hover. Contributed by @calebdw. - Return type mismatch diagnostics (type_mismatch_return). Functions and methods with a declared return type are now checked against their return statements. Incompatible return values are flagged as errors. Void functions returning a value and bare return; in non-void functions are also flagged. Generators (functions using yield) are skipped. Uses the same conservative is_type_compatible policy as argument type checking to avoid false positives. Contributed by @calebdw. - Property type assignment diagnostics (type_mismatch_property). Assignments to typed properties ($this->prop = expr and self::$prop = expr) are checked against the declared property type. Incompatible values are flagged as errors. Only plain = assignments are checked; compound operators (+=, .=, etc.) are skipped. Untyped and mixed...
