Warning Message Reported: Deprecated: Non-static method

[electric-socket]

Issue

When using the application, in "Create Role" a warning message occurs:

( ! ) Deprecated: Non-static method ACLRole::getRoleActions() should not be called statically in C:\wamp64\www\SCR\modules\ACLRoles\EditView.php on line 80

I gather the program is using features no longer supported by PHP.

Expected Behavior

The message clearly should not be happening.

Actual Behavior

No such message.

Possible Fix

Steps to Reproduce

1. Click on "Roles" in the main menu
2. Click on "Create Role" in the Submenu

Context

Trying to create a role

Not sure how significant this is but it detracts from the reputation of the program; someone using it would rightfully think: if it has an obvious error - even if it is trivial, or won't affect performance or functionality - what hidden errors does it have?

You just need to turn off "display_errors" in your php.ini and restart XAMPP - that's standard configuration best-practice.

It's a good idea to then keep an eye on the logs for any important messages. The ones labeled DEPRECATED are meant for developers, you can safely ignore them.
