Pattern: Use of new native class

Issue: -

Description

Detects use of new PHP native classes.

The sniff analyses the following constructs to find usage of new classes:

• Class instantiation using the new keyword.
• (Anonymous) Class declarations to detect new classes being extended by userland classes.
• Static use of class properties, constants or functions using the double colon.
• Function/closure declarations to detect new classes used as parameter type declarations.
• Function/closure declarations to detect new classes used as return type declarations.
• Try/catch statements to detect new exception classes being caught.

PHP version All.
