Code Modernization: Explicitly declare all properties in Services_JSON.
Dynamic (non-explicitly declared) properties are deprecated as of PHP 8.2 and are expected to become a fatal error in PHP 9.0.
There are a number of ways to mitigate this:
- If it is an accidental typo for a declared property: fix the typo.
- For known properties: declare them on the class.
- For unknown properties: add the magic
__get(), __set(), et al. methods to the class or let the class extend stdClass which has highly optimized versions of these magic methods built in.
- For unknown use of dynamic properties, the
#[AllowDynamicProperties] attribute can be added to the class. The attribute will automatically be inherited by child classes.
In this case, the $use property, as set in the class constructor, falls in the “known property” category.
