ID: 55300 Comment by: krossekrabbe at gmail dot com Reported by: frederic dot hardy at mageekbox dot net Summary: \DirectoryIterator, parent::__construct() and \LogicException Status: Assigned Type: Bug Package: SPL related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.4.0alpha2 Assigned To: cataphract Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: No, it's not only a BC break. It's exactly the same, it is not possible to extend the class. Not when calling parent::__construct(), nor when not overriding __construct() at all. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-09 08:52:19] cataphr...@php.net I wouldn't consider these duplicates. #55175 is an actual problem, this is simply an intended BC break that turned out to have a larger impact than I expected. I'll take care of both not after the beginning of next week. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-09 08:46:37] s...@php.net Actually according to my test case in https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55175 - it's even happening if you don't redefine the constructor at all. It prevents extending the class altogether, which makes no sense to me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-09 08:44:46] s...@php.net The main issue is not that it's a BC break I'd say, it's that apparently adding the call to parent::__construct does not fix the issue, the exception is always thrown if you try to have your own constructor in the extending class. BTW: This is a duplicate of https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55175 IMO. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-04 06:56:27] frederic dot hardy at mageekbox dot net This BC break is a problem with the symfony 2 framework. All command throw this exception : [LogicException] In the constructor of Symfony\Component\Finder\SplFileInfo, parent::__construct() must be called and its exceptions cannot be cleared ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-07-28 08:44:49] paj...@php.net Thing is that it is a bc break, whether it was well designed in the 1st place or not is sadly not relevant here. Is there any way to restore this behavior without bc breaks? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
