The use statement inside a class body is attempting to use an interface as if it were a trait. The use keyword in a class body is reserved for traits. Interfaces must be implemented using the implements keyword in the class declaration. This code will result in a fatal error at runtime.
Replace the use statement with implements in the class declaration.
<?php declare(strict_types = 1);
interface Printable
{
public function print(): void;
}
-class Document
+class Document implements Printable
{
- use Printable;
+ public function print(): void
+ {
+ echo 'Printing document';
+ }
}
