As an exception, we allow "Type $foo = null" to occur before a
required parameter, because this pattern was used as a replacement
for nullable types in PHP versions older than 7.1.
Closes GH-5067.
In order of preference, the generated name will be:
new class extends ParentClass {};
// -> ParentClass@anonymous
new class implements FirstInterface, SecondInterface {};
// -> FirstInterface@anonymous
new class {};
// -> class@anonymous
This is intended to display a more useful class name in error messages
and stack traces, and thus make debugging easier.
Closes GH-5153.
RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/static_return_type
The "static" type is represented as MAY_BE_STATIC, rather than
a class type like "self" and "parent", as it has special
resolution semantics, and cannot be cached in the runtime cache.
Closes GH-5062.
Make sure we still perform a zpp check for the static case, and
also always enforce that the parameter is ?object. Otherwise we
violate the specified signature.
According to RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/union_types_v2
The type representation now makes use of both the pointer payload
and the type mask at the same time. Additionall, zend_type_list is
introduced as a new kind of pointer payload, which is used to store
multiple class types. Each of the class types is a tagged pointer,
which may be either a class name or class entry. The latter is only
used for typed properties, while arguments/returns will instead use
cache slots. A type list can contain a mix of both names and CEs at
the same time, as not all classes may be resolvable.
One thing this is missing is support for union types in arginfo
and stubs, which I want to handle separately.
I've also dropped the special object code from the JIT implementation
for now -- I plan to add this back in a different form at a later time.
For now I did not want to include non-trivial JIT changes together
with large functional changes.
Another possible piece of follow-up work is to implement "iterable"
as an internal alias for "array|Traversable". I believe this will
eliminate quite a few special-cases that had to be implemented.
Closes GH-4838.
The string held by the zend_type may be released if the property
type gets resolved to a CE. I initially wanted to fix this by
storing a zend_type* instead (so the property type resolution
propagates to the ReflectionType), but decided against this in
light of upcoming union types support, where we also need to
represent parts of the union, and will not have a single zend_type*
we can reference.
Add deprecated _ZendTestClass::__toString() method to preserve
an existing test.
ReflectionType::__toString() will now return a complete
representation of the type, as it should have originally. Users
that relied on nullability being absent should have been pushed
to ReflectionNamedType::getName() by the deprecation of
ReflectionType::__toString() in PHP 7.1 / PHP 7.4.
And don't return null for rc=1 references. Leave it to the user
to decide whether or not they want to consider these as references
or not.
Fixes bug #78263.
