PHP version

Subject

With the given set of dependencies properly installed via composer, I get a mismatch on the Sonata\Cache\CacheAdapterInterface interface - which does not belong to this project, but the dependencies resolution allowed it to be installed along, which I believe should be fixed upon this bug report.

Steps to reproduce

Installing a Symfony 3.4 application and requesting all the packages listed above, ended up with a mismatch on the sonata/cache package version that added a BC by changing such interface.

Expected results

Should either install a locked/earlier version, or just conflict and say that it cannot install due to conflicting versions.

Actual results

$ php bin/console debug:container -vvv
PHP Fatal error:  Declaration of Symfony\Cmf\Bundle\BlockBundle\Cache\BlockJsCache::get(array $keys) must be compatible with Sonata\Cache\CacheAdapterInterface::get(array $keys

This is the same issue here #289 .

@dbu said:

could you do a pull request to add a conflicts section for cache >2.99 that we can put into 2.1? and if you have the time, prepare a pull request to upgrade the cacheintegration to sonata 3?

I will try providing such PRs today. Looking at https://github.com/symfony-cmf/block-bundle/blob/2.x/src/Cache/BlockJsCache.php on branch 2.x I see it still does not comply with the new interface (missing the type hints). I believe the target branch should be that one, then when merged could generate release 2.2?

Let me know if I should go anyway differently about this. Thanks!

Yes that is is an issue. But the issue was in one our two minor versions of sonata-project/block-bundle, where they introduced BC breaks instead of the deprecation notices. If you want to get a really save sonata version you should use block-bundle from ^3.15.0, cause there also a strictness fix is included.

So how to solve:

either move the broken versions (3.12 and 3.13 from my POV) to your own conflicts or we should do it on block-bundle and release a patch. I also prepare a new minor version, where I dropped all smaler block-bundle-versions: #298

And the caching thing is an other issue. There i would recommend to move "sonata-project/cache": "<1.1.1" into conflicts and require "sonata-project/cache-bundle": "2.4.*". The 3.x versions there are not compatible atm. The got the BC-Breaks you currently see.

@ElectricMaxxx thanks for the quick response!

I have managed it to work with the suggested requirement changes:

-        "sonata-project/cache-bundle": "^3.0",
+        "sonata-project/block-bundle": "^3.15.0",
+        "sonata-project/cache": "^1.0",
+        "sonata-project/cache-bundle": "2.4.*",

Thanks a lot!

A thought though: should the block-bundle error out and not install, due to the known mismatched versions? By changing the conflict section as suggested by David a while back like:
