PHP 8.0: `*printf()` and related functions support new specifiers
jrfnl opened this issue · comments
Is your feature request related to a problem?
PHP 8.0 silently introduced two new placeholder characters for the *printf() range of functions.
This not mentioned in migration guide, changelog etc - I only discovered it by accident via a small note in the manual.
h | Like the g specifier but uses F. Available as of PHP 8.0.0.
H | Like the g specifier but uses E and F. Available as of PHP 8.0.0.
Ref: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php
Describe the solution you'd like
New sniff in the ParameterValue category to analyze the $format parameter of the relevant functions and flag use of the new modifiers if PHP < 8.0 needs to be supported.
- I intend to create a pull request to implement this feature.
