  • v3.2.6 Changes

    November 27, 2020

    🚀 The Phan 3.x release line uses php-ast's AST version 70 and supports the analysis of all PHP 8.0 syntax except attributes (when run with PHP 8).
    🚀 The planned 4.x release line will use AST version 80 and require php-ast 1.0.10+ in order to parse/analyze PHP 8.0's #[] attributes

    🆕 New features (Analysis):

    • ⚡️ Update many more real parameter names to match php 8.0's parameter names for php's own internal methods. (#4263)
    • Infer that an instance property exists for PHP 8.0 constructor property promotion. (#3938)
    • Infer types of properties from arguments passed into constructor for PHP 8.0 constructor property promotion. (#3938)
    • Emit PhanInvalidNode and PhanRedefineProperty when misusing syntax for constructor property promotion. (#3938)
    • Emit PhanCompatibleConstructorPropertyPromotion when the project's minimum_target_php_version is older than 8.0 (#3938)
    • Emit PhanSuspiciousMagicConstant when using __FUNCTION__ inside of a closure. (#4222)

  • v3.2.5 Changes

    November 26, 2020

    🚀 The Phan 3.x release line uses php-ast's AST version 70 and supports the analysis of all PHP 8.0 syntax except attributes (when run with PHP 8).
    🚀 The planned 4.x release line will use AST version 80 and require php-ast 1.0.10+ in order to parse/analyze PHP 8.0's #[] attributes

    🆕 New features (Analysis):

    • Convert more internal function signature types from resource to the new object types with target_php_version of 8.0+ (#4245, #4246)
    • 👉 Make internal function signature types and counts consistent with PHP 8.0's .php.stub files used to generate some reflection information.

    🐛 Bug fixes

    • 🛠 Fix logic error inferring the real key type of lists and arrays
      and infer that the real union type of arrays is array<int,something>
      when all keys have real type int. (#4251)
    • 🛠 Fix rendering of processed item count in --long-progress-bar.

    Miscellaneous:

    • 📇 Rename OCI-Collection and OCI-Lob to OCICollection and OCILob internally to prepare for php 8 support.
      (Previously OCI_Collection and OCI_Lob were used, to be valid fqsens internally)

  • v3.2.4 Changes

    November 13, 2020

    🚀 The Phan 3.x release line uses php-ast's AST version 70 and supports the analysis of all PHP 8.0 syntax except attributes (when run with PHP 8).
    🚀 The planned 4.x release line will use AST version 80 and require php-ast 1.0.10+ in order to parse/analyze PHP 8.0's #[] attributes

    🆕 New features (Analysis):

    • 👍 Partially support self<A> and static<B> in phpdoc types. (#4226)
      👍 This support is incomplete and may run into issues with inheritance.

    🐛 Bug fixes:

    • Properly infer the literal string value of __FUNCTION__ for global functions in namespaces (#4231)
    • 🛠 Fix false positive PhanPossiblyInfiniteLoop for do {} while (false); that is unchangeably false (#4236)
    • Infer that array_shift and array_pop return null when the passed in array could be empty, not false. (#4239)
    • 🖐 Handle PhpToken::getAll() getting renamed to PhpToken::tokenize() in PHP 8.0.0RC4. (#4189)

  • v3.2.3 Changes

    October 12, 2020

    🚀 The Phan 3.x release line uses php-ast's AST version 70 and supports the analysis of all PHP 8.0 syntax except attributes (when run with PHP 8).
    🚀 The planned 4.x release line will use AST version 80 and require php-ast 1.0.10+ in order to parse/analyze PHP 8.0's #[] attributes

    🆕 New features (CLI, Config):

    • Add light_high_contrast support for --color-scheme. (#4203)
      👷 This may be useful in terminals or CI web pages that use white backgrounds.

    🆕 New features (Analysis):

    Infer that parent::someMethodReturningStaticType() is a subtype of the current class, not just the parent class. (#4202)

    👌 Support phpdoc @abstract or @phan-abstract on non-abstract class constants, properties, and methods
    to indicate that the intent is for non-abstract subclasses to override the definition. (#2278, #2285)
    🆕 New issue types: PhanCommentAbstractOnInheritedConstant, PhanCommentAbstractOnInheritedProperty, PhanCommentOverrideOnNonOverrideProperty

    For example, code using static::SOME_CONST or static::$SOME_PROPERTY or $this->someMethod()
    may declare a placeholder @abstract constant/property/method,
    and use this annotation to ensure that all non-abstract subclasses override the constant/property/method
    (if using real abstract methods is not practical for a use case)

    Warn about @override on properties that do not override an ancestor's property definition.
    🆕 New issue type: PhanCommentOverrideOnNonOverrideProperty.
    (Phan already warns for constants and methods)

    🔌 Plugins:

    • 🔌 Emit PhanPluginUseReturnValueGenerator for calling a function returning a generator without using the returned Generator. (#4013)

    🐛 Bug fixes:

    • Properly analyze the right hand side for $cond || throw ...; (e.g. emit PhanCompatibleThrowException) (#4199)
    • Don't infer implications of left || right on the right hand expression when the right hand side has no side effects. (#4199)
    • Emit PhanTypeInvalidThrowStatementNonThrowable for thrown expressions that definitely aren't \Throwable
      even when warn_about_undocumented_throw_statements is disabled or the throw expression is in the top level scope. (#4200)
    • Increase the minimum requirements in composer.json to what Phan actually requires. (#4217)

  • v3.2.2 Changes

    September 19, 2020

    🆕 New features (Analysis):

    • 👌 Improve handling of missing argument info when analyzing calls to functions/methods.
      👍 This will result in better issue detection for inherited methods or methods which Phan does not have type info for.

    🐛 Bug fixes:

    • 🛠 Fix false positive PhanUnusedVariable in for (; $loop; ...) {} (#4191)
    • 0️⃣ Don't infer defaults of ancestor class properties when analyzing the implementation of __construct. (#4195)
      0️⃣ This is only affects projects where the config setting infer_default_properties_in_construct is overridden to be enabled.
    • Check minimum_target_php_version for more compatibility warnings about parameter types.

    🚧 Maintenance:

    • ⚠ Emit a warning to stderr if run using a PHP 8 version older than 8.0.0beta4.
