Syntax error in PHP 5.5, unexpected '[' in fXmlRpc\Client

[cpliakas]

We leverage this library in the Acquia SDK for PHP, and our automated tests are failing on PHP 5.5 with the error mentioned in the title of this issue. Tests pass using PHP 5.3 and 5.4. There are multiple builds where this is happening, but a specific build is at https://travis-ci.org/acquia/acquia-sdk-php/jobs/17426083.

If looks like the 0.9.0 release adopted a more terse method of initializing some properties as empty arrays that doesn't jive with 5.5. See

fxmlrpc/src/fXmlRpc/Client.php

Line 57 in 8435c58

/**

. Earlier releases used private $prependParams = array(); syntax which seems to work across the board.

Let me know if you need more details or addition info.

Should only fail on 5.3 (obviously, as 5.3 is no longer supported). Didn’t find the relevant build result on (https://travis-ci.org/acquia/acquia-sdk-php/jobs/17426083 is green). Can you help me?
