attribute.deprecated

Code example

<?php declare(strict_types = 1);

/** @deprecated Use NewAttribute instead */
#[\Attribute]
class OldAttribute
{
}

#[OldAttribute]
class Foo
{
}

Why is it reported?

An attribute references a class that has been marked as deprecated. Using deprecated attribute classes means the code relies on attributes that are planned for removal in a future version.

In the example above, the #[OldAttribute] attribute uses the OldAttribute class which is marked as @deprecated.

How to fix it

Replace the deprecated attribute with its recommended replacement:

 <?php declare(strict_types = 1);

-#[OldAttribute]
+#[NewAttribute]
 class Foo
 {
 }
