Psalm v4.3.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-12-03 // over 3 years ago
    • prevent false-positive on isset in a finally block when checking a catch variable (#4764)
    • prevent bug when calling parent constructor during property initialisation checks (#4760)
    • 🛠 fix false-positive bug when an assignment with a ternary re-assigns a ternary variable (#4759)

Previous changes from v4.3.0

  • 🔋 Features

    • UnusedConstructor is now a separate issue from UnusedMethod. This allows people to use the private constructor pattern to prevent instantiation of classes that just have static methods (#4656)
    • 👍 RedundantCast is now a separate issue from RedundantCondition. It is now emitted for more redundant casts thanks to @orklah adding better detection (#4695)
    • 👍 @odoucet added support for the CodeClimate output format (#4387)
    • ✅ @weirdan added a test to ensure all new Psalm annotations are documented (#4723)
    • RedundantPropertyInitializationCheck is now emitted for isset checks on class properties that Psalm thinks should be defined. This allows users who prefer to initialize properties outside constructors to silence just that issue (#4732)
