Add PHP 8.5 to CI build matrix

[phpstan-bot]

Summary

• Add PHP 8.5 to the lint, tests, and static-analysis job matrices in build.yml
• Ensures the extension is tested across all PHP versions from 7.4 through 8.5

Test plan

• Verify CI runs successfully for PHP 8.5 in the lint job
• Verify CI runs successfully for PHP 8.5 in the tests job (both lowest and highest dependencies)
• Verify CI runs successfully for PHP 8.5 in the static-analysis job

@phpstan-bot Check the CI logs and fix the build for PHP 8.5 The lowest does not pass but the highest passes. Research which versions of Doctrine packages started supporting PHP 8.5 and raise the minimum versions in composer.json so that the build passes.

Fixing PHP 8.5 CI Build

• Check CI logs and identify failing jobs for PHP 8.5
• Identify locked package versions in lowest build
• Research which Doctrine package versions support PHP 8.5
• Determine required minimum version bumps in composer.json
• Update composer.json with new minimum versions
• Commit and push changes

Analysis

Failing job: Tests (8.5, lowest) — 30 errors + 75 failures (105 total out of 461 tests)

Root cause: doctrine/persistence 3.2.0 calls ReflectionProperty::setAccessible() in RuntimeReflectionService.php:93. PHP 8.5 deprecates this method (it has been a no-op since PHP 8.1). With convertDeprecationsToExceptions="true" in phpunit.xml, every deprecation notice during test execution becomes an exception, causing the test to fail.

All 105 failures trace back to the same call chain:

doctrine/persistence/RuntimeReflectionService.php:93
→ doctrine/orm/ClassMetadataInfo.php:3867
→ doctrine/orm/ClassMetadataFactory.php:789
→ doctrine/persistence/AbstractClassMetadataFactory.php

Lowest vs highest versions:

Package	Lowest (failing)	Highest (passing)
doctrine/persistence	3.2.0	3.4.3
doctrine/orm	2.16.0	2.20.9
mongodb/mongodb	2.0.0	2.2.0

Other packages checked (doctrine/dbal, doctrine/collections, doctrine/mongodb-odm, gedmo/doctrine-extensions, cache/array-adapter): No PHP 8.5 deprecation issues found.

Note: mongodb/mongodb 2.0.0 also emits a deprecation warning for the non-canonical (integer) cast in functions.php:417-418, but this fires during PHPUnit bootstrap (before convertDeprecationsToExceptions is active), so it only produces output noise and does not cause test failures.

Fix applied

Bumped doctrine/persistence minimum from ^2.2.1 || ^3.2 to ^2.2.1 || ^3.4 in composer.json. The setAccessible() call was removed in the 3.4.x release series. The ^2.2.1 part is preserved for PHP 7.4/8.0 compatibility (persistence 2.x covers those PHP versions).

No other composer.json changes were needed — doctrine/orm itself doesn't call setAccessible() directly (it delegates to persistence's RuntimeReflectionService), so fixing persistence resolves the entire call chain.

Fixing PHP 8.5 CI Build (continued)

• Check CI logs for the failing job
• Identify root cause of remaining failures
• Apply fix
• Commit and push changes

Analysis

The previous fix bumped doctrine/persistence minimum from ^3.2 to ^3.4, but 3.4.0 still contains the setAccessible() call at RuntimeReflectionService.php:93. The --prefer-lowest build resolved to 3.4.0 and failed with the same 30 errors + 75 failures.

Build	doctrine/persistence version	Result
Tests (8.5, lowest) with ^3.4	3.4.0	Failed — setAccessible() still present
Tests (8.5, highest)	3.4.3	Passed — setAccessible() removed

Fix

Bumped doctrine/persistence minimum from ^3.4 to ^3.4.3 in composer.json. Version 3.4.3 is confirmed to not contain the deprecated setAccessible() call (the highest dependency build passes with it).

[ondrejmirtes]

@phpstan-bot 3.4.0 has setAccessible. There's now 4.x branch but it only supports PHP 8.1+, so we might need to conditionally update the workflow to require newer versions of this package for newer PHP versions.

Fixing PHP 8.5 CI Build — Conditional Version Requirements

• Analyze CI failure — identify all PHP 8.5 deprecation issues
• Confirm persistence ^3.4.3 fixed the setAccessible issue
• Identify remaining deprecation sources (DBAL + ORM)
• Implement conditional workflow update for PHP 8.5 lowest deps
• Fix composer resolution conflicts

Root Cause Analysis

The persistence ^3.4.3 bump fixed 75 of 105 original failures. The remaining 30 errors come from two PHP 8.5 deprecations in the --prefer-lowest dependency versions:

Package	Lowest Version	Deprecation	Errors
doctrine/dbal	3.3.8	PDO::sqliteCreateFunction() deprecated in PHP 8.5	16
doctrine/orm	2.16.0	null as array offset deprecated in PHP 8.5	14

Both pass on the highest build (DBAL 3.10.4 / ORM 2.20.9).

Note on persistence

Regarding "3.4.0 has setAccessible" — correct, but the constraint is ^3.4.3. CI confirms persistence 3.4.3 does NOT trigger the setAccessible deprecation (the call was removed between 3.4.0 and 3.4.3). Persistence 4.x is not needed at this time.

Fix Applied (build.yml)

Added a conditional update-packages entry for PHP 8.5 lowest, following the existing matrix pattern:

exclude:
  - php-version: "8.5"
    dependencies: "lowest"
include:
  - php-version: "8.5"
    dependencies: "lowest"
    update-packages: "composer update doctrine/dbal doctrine/orm nesbot/carbon carbonphp/carbon-doctrine-types --no-interaction --no-progress"

Why composer update <packages> instead of composer require: All versions of carbonphp/carbon-doctrine-types (1.0.0 through 3.2.0) explicitly conflict with doctrine/dbal 3.9.5+. Using composer require --dev doctrine/dbal:^3.9 fails even with -W because no carbon-doctrine-types version is compatible. Using composer update <packages> selectively updates just the Doctrine packages and their carbon dependencies to their highest compatible versions, while keeping everything else at lowest.

Commit	Description
078473a	Add PHP 8.5 to CI build matrix
740bad3	Raise doctrine/persistence minimum to ^3.4
9c24cc9	Raise doctrine/persistence minimum to ^3.4.3
914fe6f	Add conditional exclude/include for PHP 8.5 lowest in tests matrix
8377714	Use composer update approach to avoid carbon-doctrine-types conflict

Note: CI may need a manual re-run on the latest commit (8377714) — the new workflow run doesn't appear to have triggered automatically after the latest push.
