Cast to custom class type in PHP

I am using Laravel.

Due to it being MVC, I am passing a model (an object) of a certain class type into the view.

Of course, inside my view... it has no idea what the controller has pushed out when i'm developing, so I lose my typeahead on my ViewModels...

I tried doing something like this:

(TimesheetViewModel)$Model;

But unfortunately that doesn't work...

What I end up having to do is declare a $Model = new TimesheetViewModel(); just to help me develop the page and then get rid of it at the end. It's dumb... Any good ways of helping out my typeahead?

Using PHP doc: At the beginning of the view:

<?php
/* @var $model TimesheetViewModel */
?>
