Php 8.1 deprecation warning about mcrypt_compat HOT 4 CLOSED

What version of mcrypt_compat are you using? From the most recent commit from the 1.0.14 release:

That should prevent the deprecation warning.

For good measure I just tested it out. With #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] I did not get the warning, without it I did.

The latest version i see is 2.0.3 on Github, installing 2.0.3 shows the same error. When i add @return void to the method, the error goes away, not sure what is the reason, i'm getting the deprecation message when running tests via phpunit

Can you share the output of your php -i?

What you're describing just doesn't jibe. So I created the following script:

<?php

class DemoFilter extends php_user_filter
{
    #[\ReturnTypeWillChange]
    public function filter($in, $out, &$consumed, $closing)
    {
    }

    /**
     * @return void
     */
    public function onCreate()
    {
    }

    public function onClose()
    {
    }
}

Here it's being ran on PHP 8.1: https://3v4l.org/kaChc

The output is as follows:

Deprecated: Return type of DemoFilter::onCreate() should either be compatible with php_user_filter::onCreate(): bool, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /in/kaChc on line 13

Deprecated: Return type of DemoFilter::onClose() should either be compatible with php_user_filter::onClose(): void, or the #[\ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute should be used to temporarily suppress the notice in /in/kaChc on line 17

ie. the only line that doesn't result in a Deprecated warning is the one that's doing #[\ReturnTypeWillChange]. I'm guessing on yours it'd be the one that's doing @return void?

I mean, I can do @return void but I want to better understand the problem, first. Like what if this is an Ubuntu modified PHP version? In that scenario a bug report against the Ubuntu package maintainer might be appropriate in addition to doing @return void.

Thanks, I tried this in an isolated project and there is no deprecation for #[ReturnTypeWillChange] attribute while there is one for annotation.
