goaop/framework

Better late than never! This is next major release of Go! AOP that contains some improvements and uses new code features for better performance and stability.

Notable changes are:

• [BC BREAK] Switched to the PHP7.4 and upper, strict types, property and return type hints and new syntax
• [BC BREAK] Removed the Joinpoint->getThis() method, as not all joinpoints belongs to classes (eg. FunctionInvocation)
• [BC BREAK] Removed the Joinpoint->getStaticPart() method as it can return anything, better to use explicit methods
• [Feature] Introduced the new ClassJoinpoint interface with getScope(), getThis() and isDynamic() methods
• [Feature] Implemented parameter widening feature for generated code #380
• [Feature] AnnotatedReflectionProperty provides simple access to property annotations #388 by @TheCelavi
• [Feature] Switched to the laminas/laminas-code package to generate code for proxies
• [Feature] Add private properties interception #412
• [Feature] Static code analysis with PhpStan was enabled
• [Feature] Migration from TravisCI to GitHub Actions

Notice: This version still doesn't support PHP8, see #466, mostly because of absence of PHP8-compatible parser reflection libraries. If you want to contribute this to one of existing projects, this will be very helpful.

Small patch version to allow installation of Symfony5 components #447

This is a patch release with #425 bug fix.

Patch release that contains several small fixes

• Fixed call to undefined method with new PhpParser for 2.x branch #419
• Finder glob pattern #421
• Fix memory leaks and late object disposal #423

• Dropped support for PHP<5.6, clean all old code
• [BC BREAK] Removed ability to rebind closures, because of PHP restrictions, see #247
• [BC BREAK] Removed getDefaultFeatures() method from the AspectKernel, no need in it since PHP5.6
• Migrated from the Andrewswille/Token-Reflection to the goaop/parser-reflection library for PHP5.6 and PHP7.0 support
• Added support for PHP5.6 and 7.0 features: variadic methods, scalar type hints, return type hints
• [Feature] Command-line tools for debugging aspects and advisors

• Dropped support for PHP<5.5, clean all old code
• Tagged public methods and interfaces with @api tag. No more changes for them in future.
• Refactored core code to use general interceptors for everything instead of separate classes
• New static initialization pointcut to intercept the moment of class loading
• New feature to intercept object initializations, requires INTERCEPT_INITIALIZATIONS to be enabled
• [BC BREAK] remove class() pointcut from the grammar #189
• [BC BREAK] make within() and @within() match all joinpoints #189
• [BC BREAK] drop @annotation syntax. Add @execution pointcut
• Pointcuts can be build now directly from closures via PointcutBuilder class
• Do not create files in the cache, if no aspects were applied to them, respects includePath option now
• FilterInjector is now disabled by default, this job for composer integration now
• Automatic opcache invalidation for cache state file

• Minor patch to fix a bug with overwriting files

• Interceptor for magic methods via "dynamic" pointcut. This feature also gives an access for dynamic pointcuts with different checks and conditions.
• PSR-4 standard for the codebase, thanks to @cordoval
• Added a support for splat (...) operator for more efficient advice invocation (requires PHP5.6)
• New feature system. All tunings of kernel are configured with feature-set. This breaks old configuration option interceptFunctions=>true use 'features' => $defaultFeatures | Features::INTERCEPT_FUNCTIONS now
• Proxy can generate more effective invocation call with static::class for PHP>=5.5
• Bug-fixes with empty cache path and PSR4 code, thanks to @andy-shea
• Make pointcut grammar class compatible with PHP7.0

• Proxies are now stored in the separate files to allow more transparent debugging
• Cache warmer command added
• Extended pointcut syntax for or-ed methods: ClassName->method1|method2(*)
• Access to the annotations for method from MethodInvocation
• Support for read-only file systems (phar, GAE, etc)
• Direct access to advisors (no more serialize/unserialize)
• New @within pointcut to match classes by annotation class
• Nice demo GUI
• Deprecate the usage of submodules for framework
• Inheritance support during class-loading and weaving
• List of small fixes and imrovements

• Better parsing of complex "include" expressions for Yii (by @zvirusz)
• Support for dynamic arguments count for methods by checking for func_get_args() inside method body
• Fixed a bug with autoloaders reodering (by @zvirusz)

• Privileged advices for aspect: allows to access private and protected properties and methods of objects inside advice
• Full integration with composer that allows for easy configuration and workflow with AOP
• Fix some bugs with caching on Windows
• "True" pointcut references that gives the ability to compose a complex pointcut from a simple pointcuts.
• Pointcut now accept "$this" in references to point to the current aspect instance (Allows for abstract aspects and abstract pointcuts)
• AspectContainer interface was extracted. This gives the way to integrate with another DIC. Look at Warlock framework.
• Intercepting system functions such as fopen(), file_get_contents(), etc
• Annotation property pointcut was added
• Ability to declare multiple interfaces and/or traits with single DeclareParent introduction
• DeclareError interceptor was added. This can be used for generating an runtime error for methods that should not be executed in such a way.

• Support for dynamic pointcuts: pointcut that match a specific point in the code, if it is under the control flow (look at AspectJ cflow and cflowbelow)
• Performance optimizations
• Case-sensitive matching for pointcuts
• Primitive pointcuts (&&, ||, !)
• [BC break] Changes in the kernel configuration (look at the demo for appLoader and autoloadPaths)
• Fix a logic bug for a composite pointcuts

• Intercepting methods in traits
• Pointcut parser/grammar
• Huge pointcuts refactoring, cleaning
• Lazy loading services, pointcuts

• Introduction advice support
• Fix bug with composer autoloader prepending
• Fix doctrine/common dependency: >=2.0.0, <2.4.0

• Initial release of library
