A brief discussion on the update progress of PHP 8.2

PHP 8.2 brings type system improvements, readonly `readonly` classes, sensitive parameter hiding support, a new random `random` extension, and many features including simplifying and modernizing PHP , let’s take a look at it, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.

PHP 8.2 brings type system improvements, read-onlyreadonly classes, sensitive parameter hiding support, new random random extensions, and many features including simplifying and modernizing PHP.

PHP 8.2 is an important milestone in the modernization of PHP. In addition to exciting new features and improvements, PHP 8.2 works by deprecating dynamic property support, issuing warnings on INI configuration values, and fixing a number of legacy behaviors for array sorting and string conversions.

Type system improvements

PHP 8.2 resolves several shortcomings and limitations of the original type system, allowing PHP projects to have better type safety. This includes adding support for the true type and allowing null and false to be used as independent types, as well as adding support for DNF types.

Disjoint Normal Form (DNF) type support - In PHP 8.2, developers can combine the union union type (PHP 8.0) with the intersectionintersection Types (PHP 8.1), which in turn allows for the declaration of more precise parameter, return and property types.

function process((HTMLRequest & RequestInterface) | APIRequest $request) {
 // ...
}

(HTMLRequest & RequestInterface) | APIRequest The type declaration indicates that $request must be an instance of APIRequest, or implementHTMLRequest and RequestInterface.

On the other hand, after adding the true and false independent types, the bool type of the fixed return value can be changed to a specific one type.

function alwaysReturnsFalse(): false {}

function alwaysReturnsNull(): null {}

function alwaysReturnsTrue(): true {}

In the past, we have been able to define nullable parameters in the form of string|null, but in PHP 8.2, we will be able to use null## directly # As an independent type.

readonly Class

// PHP 8.2
readonly class User {
	public string $username;
	public int $uid;
}

// PHP 8.1 等效写法
class User {
	public readonly string $username;
	public readonly int $uid;
}

random Extension

random.

random The extension remains compatible with the existing API while providing the same functionality, so rand mt_rand random_bytes random_int and other functions can continue to work without any changes. But the random extension provides a new object-oriented API to generate random numbers with a modular architecture, making it easier to simulate RNGs and provide new RNGs, making testing projects safer and more convenient.

trait FooBar {
	const FOO = 'foo';
	private const BAR = 'bar';
	final const BAZ = 'baz';
	final protected const QUX = 'qux';
}

class Test {
	use FooBar;
}

echo Test::BAZ; // 'bar'

#[\SensitiveParameter] parameter annotation, which is used to hide the actual value in errors and stack information.

#[\SensitiveParameter] to hide the specific value. If an error or exception occurs, the corresponding value will be replaced with a \SensitiveParameterValue object.

password_hash and password_verify are annotated with #[\SensitiveParameter] parameters.

- function passwordHash(string $password)  {

+ function passwordHash(#[\SensitiveParameter] string $password)  {
        debug_print_backtrace();
    }
    passwordHash('hunter2');

array(1) {
    [0]=> array(4) {
        ["file"]=> string(38) "..."
        ["line"]=> int(9)
        ["function"]=> string(3) "foo"
        ["args"]=> array(1) {
-           [0]=> string(38) "hunter2"
+           [0]=> object(SensitiveParameterValue)#1 (0) {}
        }
    }
}

Parse INI capacityini_parse_quantity

ini_parse_quantity('256M'); // 268435456

Copy after login

Keep CURL connectioncurl_upkeep

curl_upkeep function in the PHP 8.2 Curl extension triggers the underlying Curl library to run the necessary tasks to keep the Curl connection is active. The most common use case for this function is to keep an HTTP persistent connection (Keep-Alive) by calling the curl_upkeep function periodically.

获取加密密钥长度 openssl_cipher_key_length

在 PHP 8.2 OpenSSL 中，有一个名为 openssl_cipher_key_length 的新函数，它返回任何受支持的 OpenSSL 密码所需的密钥长度（以字节为单位）。

此功能消除了对 OpenSSL 密码操作所需密钥长度进行硬编码的需要。

openssl_cipher_key_length("CHACHA20-POLY1305"); // 32

openssl_cipher_key_length("AES-128-GCM"); // 16

openssl_cipher_key_length("AES-256-GCM"); // 32

重置记录的内存使用峰值 memory_reset_peak_usage

PHP 8.2 添加了一个名为 memory_reset_peak_usage 的新函数，用于重置由 memory_get_peak_usage 函数返回的峰值内存使用量。

这对于多次调用或迭代一个动作并且需要记录每次调用的峰值内存使用量的应用程序很有帮助。 如果没有 memory_reset_peak_usage 函数重置内存使用情况，memory_get_peak_usage 将会返回整个运行过程中的绝对峰值内存使用情况。

PHP 8.2 弃用情况

PHP 8.2 也带来了相当一部分弃用。当语法、函数或特性被弃用时，PHP 会发出弃用通知，该通知不会中断 PHP 应用，但会记录到错误日志中。

弃用动态属性

PHP 8.2 中最值得注意的弃用之一是它弃用了动态声明的类属性。虽然可以忽略错误，但建议在类中声明类属性，加上类型声明就更好了。

class User {
	public int $uid;
}

$user = new User();
$user->name = 'Foo';

Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property User::$name is deprecated in ... on

许多古老的 PHP 应用程序很可能会受到此更改的影响，因为它们在扩展时往往不声明类属性，或者随着变化多年来不断发展。

当然了，选择忽略或例外也是存在的：

• 匿名类及其子类（stdClass）

• 具有 __get 和 __set 魔术方法的类

• 具有 #[AllowDynamicProperties] 注解的类

弃用 utf8_encode 和 utf8_decode 函数

PHP 8.2 终于弃用这两名字跟实际效果不一致的函数，虽然名为 utf8 但实际上是 Latin 1 （ISO-8859-1）。

大多数使用这些函数的 PHP 项目往往没有意识到这个问题。推荐的替代品包括 mbstring、iconv 和 intl 扩展以提供更好的功能。

弃用 ${var} 字符串格式

PHP 一直支持使用 foo {$bar} 模式的字符串变量插值，以及将美元符号放在大括号外的替代语法 foo ${bar}。

在 PHP 8.2 中，将美元符号放在花括号外的替代语法已弃用。

此外，PHP 8.2 还弃用了一些部分支持的 callable 模式和 Mbstring 扩展对 Base64、Uuencode、QPrint 和 HTML 实体编码的处理。
