PHP5.5 ~ PHP7.2 new features arrangement

1. Migrating from PHP 5.5.x to PHP 5.6.x

Use expressions to define constants

In previous PHP versions, you had to use static values ​​to define constants, declare properties, and specify default values ​​for function parameters. You can now use numeric expressions including numbers, string literals, and other constants to define constants, declare properties, and set default values ​​for function parameters.

<?php
const ONE = 1;
const TWO = ONE * 2;

class C {
    const THREE = TWO + 1;
    const ONE_THIRD = ONE / self::THREE;
    const SENTENCE = &#39;The value of THREE is &#39;.self::THREE;
}

You can now define constants of type array through the const keyword.

<?php
const ARR = [&#39;a&#39;, &#39;b&#39;];

echo ARR[0];

Use the ... operator to define a variable-length parameter function

You can now use the... operator without relying on func_get_args() To implement a variable-length parameter function.

<?php
function f($req, $opt = null, ...$params) {
    // $params 是一个包含了剩余参数的数组
    printf(&#39;$req: %d; $opt: %d; number of params: %d&#39;."\n",
           $req, $opt, count($params));
}

f(1);
f(1, 2);
f(1, 2, 3);
f(1, 2, 3, 4);
?>

The above routine will output:

$req: 1; $opt: 0; number of params: 0
$req: 1; $opt: 2; number of params: 0
$req: 1; $opt: 2; number of params: 1
$req: 1; $opt: 2; number of params: 2

Use the ... operator for parameter expansion

When calling the function When using... operator, arrays and traversable objects are expanded into function parameters. In other programming languages, such as Ruby, this is called the concatenation operator.

<?php
function add($a, $b, $c) {
    return $a + $b + $c;
}

$operators = [2, 3];
echo add(1, ...$operators);
?>

The above routine will output:

6

use function and use const

use operators have been extended to support importing in classes External functions and constants. The corresponding structures are use function and use const.

<?php
namespace Name\Space {
    const FOO = 42;
    function f() { echo __FUNCTION__."\n"; }
}

namespace {
    use const Name\Space\FOO;
    use function Name\Space\f;

    echo FOO."\n";
    f();
}
?>

The above routine will output:

42
Name\Space\f

Use hash_equals() to compare strings to avoid timing attacks

##2. Migrating from PHP 5.6.x to PHP 7.0.x

scalar Type declaration

Scalar type declaration has two modes: mandatory (default) and strict mode. The following type parameters are now available (either in forced or strict mode): string, int, float, and bool.

<?php
// Coercive mode
function sumOfInts(int ...$ints)
{
    return array_sum($ints);
}

var_dump(sumOfInts(2, &#39;3&#39;, 4.1));

The above routine will output:

int(9)

Return value type declaration

PHP 7 adds support for return type declaration. Similar to the parameter type declaration, the return type declaration specifies the type of the function's return value. The available types are the same as those available in the parameter declaration.

<?php

function arraysSum(array ...$arrays): array
{
    return array_map(function(array $array): int {
        return array_sum($array);
    }, $arrays);
}

null coalescing operator

Due to the large number of situations where ternary expressions and isset() are used simultaneously in daily use, we added the null coalescing operator (

??) This syntactic sugar. If the variable exists and is not NULL, it returns its own value, otherwise it returns its second operand.

<?php
// Fetches the value of $_GET[&#39;user&#39;] and returns &#39;nobody&#39; if it does not exist.
$username = $_GET[&#39;user&#39;] ?? &#39;nobody&#39;;
// This is equivalent to:
$username = isset($_GET[&#39;user&#39;]) ? $_GET[&#39;user&#39;] : &#39;nobody&#39;;

// Coalesces can be chained: this will return the first defined value out of $_GET[&#39;user&#39;], $_POST[&#39;user&#39;], and &#39;nobody&#39;.
$username = $_GET[&#39;user&#39;] ?? $_POST[&#39;user&#39;] ?? &#39;nobody&#39;;
?>

Spaceship operator (combined comparison operator)

The spaceship operator is used to compare two expressions. It returns -1, 0 or 1 when $a is less than, equal to or greater than $b respectively. The principle of comparison follows PHP's regular comparison rules.

<?php
// 整数
echo 1 <=> '1'; // 0
echo 1 <=> 2; // -1
echo 2 <=> 1; // 1

// 浮点数
echo '1.50' <=> 1.5; // 0
echo 1.5 <=> 2.5; // -1
echo 2.5 <=> 1.5; // 1
 
// 字符串
echo "a" <=> "a"; // 0
echo "a" <=> "b"; // -1
echo "b" <=> "a"; // 1
?>

Defining constant arrays via define()

Constants of type Array can now be defined via define(). In PHP5.6 it can only be defined via const.

define('ANIMALS', [
    'dog',
    'cat',
    'bird'
]);

echo ANIMALS[1]; // 输出 "cat"

Closure::call()

Closure::call() now has better performance and is a short and concise way to temporarily bind a method to an object. package and call it.

<?php
class A {private $x = 1;}

// PHP 7 之前版本的代码
$getXCB = function() {return $this->x;};
$getX = $getXCB->bindTo(new A, 'A'); // 中间层闭包
echo $getX();

// PHP 7+ 及更高版本的代码
$getX = function() {return $this->x;};
echo $getX->call(new A);

The above routine will output:

1

Groupuse Statement

Classes, functions and imported from the same namespace Constants can now be imported all at once with a single use statement.

<?php

// PHP 7 之前的代码
use some\namespace\ClassA;
use some\namespace\ClassB;
use some\namespace\ClassC as C;

use function some\namespace\fn_a;
use function some\namespace\fn_b;
use function some\namespace\fn_c;

use const some\namespace\ConstA;
use const some\namespace\ConstB;
use const some\namespace\ConstC;

// PHP 7+ 及更高版本的代码
use some\namespace\{ClassA, ClassB, ClassC as C};
use function some\namespace\{fn_a, fn_b, fn_c};
use const some\namespace\{ConstA, ConstB, ConstC};
?>

Generators can return expressions

This feature builds on the generator feature introduced in PHP 5.5 version. It allows you to return an expression (but does not allow the return of a reference value) by using the return syntax in a generator function. You can get the return value of the generator by calling the Generator::getReturn() method, but this method can only be used when generating Called once after the processor has finished generating work.

Integer division function intp()

Ported from PHP 7.0.x to PHP 7.1.x

Nullable type

The types of parameters and return values ​​can now be allowed to be null by adding a question mark before the type. When this feature is enabled, the parameters passed in or the result returned by the function are either of the given type or null .

<?php

function testReturn(): ?string
{
    return &#39;elePHPant&#39;;
}

var_dump(testReturn());

function testReturn(): ?string
{
    return null;
}

var_dump(testReturn());

function test(?string $name)
{
    var_dump($name);
}

test(&#39;elePHPant&#39;);
test(null);
test();

The above routine will output:

string(10) "elePHPant"
NULL
string(10) "elePHPant"
NULL
Uncaught Error: Too few arguments to function test(), 0 passed in...

Void function

A new return value type void is introduced. Methods whose return values ​​are declared of type void either omit the return statement altogether or use an empty return statement. NULL is not a legal return value for void functions.

<?php
function swap(&$left, &$right) : void
{
    if ($left === $right) {
        return;
    }

    $tmp = $left;
    $left = $right;
    $right = $tmp;
}

$a = 1;
$b = 2;
var_dump(swap($a, $b), $a, $b);

The above routine will output:

null
int(2)
int(1)

Symmetric array destructuring

Short array syntax ([]) is now used as a list() syntax Alternative, can be used to assign the value of an array to some variable (included in foreach).

<?php
$data = [
    [1, &#39;Tom&#39;],
    [2, &#39;Fred&#39;],
];

// list() style
list($id1, $name1) = $data[0];

// [] style
[$id1, $name1] = $data[0];

// list() style
foreach ($data as list($id, $name)) {
    // logic here with $id and $name
}

// [] style
foreach ($data as [$id, $name]) {
    // logic here with $id and $name
}

Class constant visibility

Now supports setting the visibility of class constants.

<?php
class ConstDemo
{
    const PUBLIC_CONST_A = 1;
    public const PUBLIC_CONST_B = 2;
    protected const PROTECTED_CONST = 3;
    private const PRIVATE_CONST = 4;
}

iterable 伪类

现在引入了一个新的被称为iterable的伪类 (与callable类似)。 这可以被用在参数或者返回值类型中，它代表接受数组或者实现了Traversable接口的对象。 至于子类，当用作参数时，子类可以收紧父类的iterable类型到array 或一个实现了Traversable的对象。对于返回值，子类可以拓宽父类的 array或对象返回值类型到iterable。

<?php
function iterator(iterable $iter) : iterable
{
    foreach ($iter as $val) {
        //
    }
}

多异常捕获处理

一个catch语句块现在可以通过管道字符(|)来实现多个异常的捕获。 这对于需要同时处理来自不同类的不同异常时很有用。

<?php
try {
    // some code
} catch (FirstException | SecondException $e) {
    // handle first and second exceptions
}

list()现在支持键名

现在list()和它的新的[]语法支持在它内部去指定键名。这意味着它可以将任意类型的数组 都赋值给一些变量（与短数组语法类似）

<?php
$data = [
    ["id" => 1, "name" => 'Tom'],
    ["id" => 2, "name" => 'Fred'],
];

// list() style
list("id" => $id1, "name" => $name1) = $data[0];

// [] style
["id" => $id1, "name" => $name1] = $data[0];

// list() style
foreach ($data as list("id" => $id, "name" => $name)) {
    // logic here with $id and $name
}

// [] style
foreach ($data as ["id" => $id, "name" => $name]) {
    // logic here with $id and $name
}

---

从PHP 7.1.x 移植到 PHP 7.2.x

新的对象类型

这种新的对象类型, object, 引进了可用于逆变（contravariant）参数输入和协变（covariant）返回任何对象类型。

<?php

function test(object $obj) : object
{
    return new SplQueue();
}

test(new StdClass());

允许重写抽象方法(Abstract method)

当一个抽象类继承于另外一个抽象类的时候，继承后的抽象类可以重写被继承的抽象类的抽象方法。

abstract class A
{
    abstract function test(string $s);
}
abstract class B extends A
{
    // overridden - still maintaining contravariance for parameters and covariance for return
    abstract function test($s) : int;
}

扩展了参数类型

重写方法和接口实现的参数类型现在可以省略了。不过这仍然是符合LSP，因为现在这种参数类型是逆变的。

interface A
{
    public function Test(array $input);
}

class B implements A
{
    public function Test($input){} // type omitted for $input
}

允许分组命名空间的尾部逗号

命名空间可以在PHP 7中使用尾随逗号进行分组引入。

use Foo\Bar\{
    Foo,
    Bar,
    Baz,
};
