classConstant.deprecatedEnum

Code example

<?php declare(strict_types = 1);

/** @deprecated Use NewStatus instead */
enum OldStatus: string
{
    case Active = 'active';
    case Inactive = 'inactive';
}

$value = OldStatus::Active;

Why is it reported?

The code accesses a constant (or enum case) on an enum that has been marked as @deprecated. Deprecated enums are scheduled for removal in a future version and should no longer be used.

This error is reported by the phpstan-deprecation-rules extension.

How to fix it

Use the replacement suggested in the deprecation message:

 <?php declare(strict_types = 1);

-$value = OldStatus::Active;
+$value = NewStatus::Active;
