Bug ID: 437992
Summary: PHP8 (and 7.4) support
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.6.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Language Support: PHP
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Hello,
I know that PHP support is not as popular part of KDevelop, but I rely on it
for work and like it very much. But since most project are migrating to either
PHP 7.4 or 8.0, it would be really nice if there was support for some of the
new features introduced in these versions. Major functions lacking support are:
* Constructor property promotion
(https://wiki.php.net/rfc/constructor_promotion)
* Union types (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/union_types_v2)
* Attributes (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/attributes_v2)
* Nullsafe operator (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/nullsafe_operator)
* Named params (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/named_params)
There are problably more but I find these most important since they break
syntax higligting and other checks when used.
Wide adoption of these are making KDevelop increasingly unusable on PHP
projects.
I can offer some form of help - I know some very basic C++ and Qt and am a PHP
developer, so if someone would be willing to outline the needed changes for me
and point me in the right direction, I can do at least part of the work.
Thanks in advance for considering this!
