1.2.458. Final Constant¶
This rule lists the usage of the final modifier for class constants. The support of final for class constants was added in PHP 8.1.
<?php
class MyClass {
final const X = 1; // This constant cannot be redefined
const Y = 2; // This constant might be redefined in a child
private const Z = 3; // This private, and can't be made final, because it is not available anyway
}
?>
