Description

See here:

https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.heredoc

Warning
It is very important to note that the line with the closing identifier must contain no other characters, except a semicolon (. That means especially that the identifier may not be indented.

Netbeans ignore this completely.

Closing "EOT;" must always be on the left, no indentation

Invalid:

<?php
class foo {
    public $bar = <<<EOT
bar
    EOT;
}
// Identifier must not be indented
?>

Valid:

<?php
class foo {
    public $bar = <<<EOT
bar
EOT;
}
?>
