1.2.745. Must Call Parent Constructor¶
Some PHP native classes require a call to
parent\:\:`__construct() <https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.decon.php>`_to be stable.
As of PHP 7.3, two classes currently need that call : SplTempFileObject and SplFileObject.
The error is only emitted if the class is instantiated, and a parent class is called.
<?php
class mySplFileObject extends \SplFileObject {
public function __construct() {
// Forgottent call to parent::__construct()
}
}
(new mySplFileObject())->passthru();
?>
