Hi internals, I recently found out that constructor property promotion cannot be used for final properties. I propose that it become allowed. Thoughts? Would this need an RFC, or is this minor enough to be acceptable with just a mailing list discussion?
Background: In the process of trying to help support PHP 8.4 syntax in PHPCS[1], I discovered that constructor property promotion cannot be used with final properties. I thought that this was a bug, and filed GH-17860 with the report[2]. But, in the discussion on the patch that I sent to fix the bug[3], I was told that this was intentionally omitted. So, now the bug is a feature request. -Daniel [1] https://github.com/PHPCSStandards/PHP_CodeSniffer/issues/734 [2] https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/17860 [3] https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/17861
