PHP 8.4 Implicitly marking parameter as nullable is deprecated

Open on Drupal.org →
Created on 27 January 2025, 9 months ago

Problem/Motivation

PHP 8.4 has deprecated implicit nullable types, causing deprecation warnings in the change_pwd_page module. These warnings need to be addressed to ensure compatibility with future PHP versions and to maintain clean error logs.

Steps to reproduce

  • Install and enable the change_pwd_page module (version 2.0.0)
  • Use PHP 8.4
  • Clear Drupal cache (e.g., using `drush cr`)
  • Observe the following deprecation warnings:
     PHP Deprecated: Drupal\change_pwd_page\Form\ChangePasswordForm::buildForm(): Implicitly marking parameter $user as nullable is deprecated, the explicit nullable type must be used instead in /app/web/modules/contrib/change_pwd_page/src/Form/ChangePasswordForm.php on line 68 

    PHP Deprecated:  Drupal\config_ignore\Form\IgnoreSettingsForm::buildForm(): Implicitly marking parameter $request as nullable is deprecated, the explicit nullable type must be used instead in /app/web/modules/contrib/config_ignore/src/Form/IgnoreSettingsForm.php on line 36

Proposed resolution

Update the method signature in ChangePasswordForm.php and IgnoreSettingsForm to explicitly declare parameters as nullable.

Remaining tasks

  • Update the code to explicitly declare nullable parameters
  • Test the changes to ensure they resolve the deprecation warning
  • Verify that the module's functionality remains intact after the changes
  • Update any relevant documentation or comments in the code
