Original Pull Request: https://github.com/doctrine/orm/pull/7167

State: closed
Merged: No

We already require PHP 7.2.
While having PHP 8.0 as minimum version, we can further:

Leverage native generics!
Leverage typed properties!
Use union and intersection types!
Use proper variance for complex types!
Use native enums!
Use typed callbacks!
Use native annotations!
... and much more!

Of course, some of these features are not yet implemented, but why not use them ahead of time, right? :shipit:

This would essentially make the project the first to use shiny, new, not-yet-released PHP 8.0!.

Not yet supported by Travis/Scrutinizer.

^9.0 is a safety measure, we all know what happened to PHP 6. 😛
