What is planning for phpstan wrt end of active support on php8.3?

[mroeling]

Please note that there are blocking issues when using phpstan (and specifically phpstan-doctrine) that prevents using php cli on php8.4.

What is the general opinion about these kind of blocking issues?

e.g. phpstan/phpstan-doctrine#646

End of active php 8.3 support per 31 Dec 2025: https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php

PHPStan fully supports running on PHP 7.4 to 8.5. You can even set the phpVersion (https://phpstan.org/config-reference#phpversion) config parameter to 70100 and up and PHPStan will treat your codebase as written for PHP 7.1+.

The table at https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php has no bearing on what PHP versions PHPStan supports.

About the linked issue phpstan/phpstan-doctrine#646 - nobody provided me with a working reproduction of the issue. The errors from stubs simply should not appear when analysing code outside of phpstan-doctrine repository.

I tried to write some a bit more defensive code about filtering those errors that shipped in the latest PHPStan 2.1.31. Are you using that version?

If you're using the latest PHPStan version and this issue still appears, please create a minimal repository that shows this problem.

2.1.31 is confirmed, with version 2.0.10 for phpstan-doctrine.

I've created a repo with the same composer packages as we currently use.

It's intentionally containing just one empty php file to show what happens.

In the last commit I've removed most of the packages, and the result was still the same.

All necessary steps are in the Readme.md

Feel free to contact me if you need additional information.

Fixed: phpstan/phpstan-src#4522

You can try it now by doing composer require --dev phpstan/phpstan:2.1.x-dev.
