Re: PHP 8.1 Support

BigTree 4.5 will support PHP 8.1 — it's currently under active development, mostly finding all the edge cases where the tightening of warnings/errors in PHP 8 causes issues.

Re: PHP 8.1 Support

Thanks, Tim.  Is there an estimated time frame for when it will be released?

Re: PHP 8.1 Support

Also, given that PHP 7.4 EOL is November 2022, is it safe to assume BigTree 4.5 will be available before then?  And does it currently support PHP 8.0?

Re: PHP 8.1 Support

Yes, it will definitely be ready before then. I am hoping for the next few weeks with the end of August being the latest. PHP 8 introduced a lot of breaking changes (things like running "count" on an empty variable are now errors rather than warnings) so currently it does not run on PHP 8 or 8.1.
