Hello Internals, I've been working with Derick Rethans and others (thanks all!) on a Shorter Attribute Syntax Change RFC which outlines reasons why the "#[]" syntax would be preferred over the currently agreed upon "@@" syntax for Shorter Attribute Syntax.
An important part of the research that went into this proposal demonstrates how "@@" will make handling attributes more difficult for PHP_CodeSniffer (and similar tools) and shows how the alternative "#[]" syntax is more friendly for these tools. You can find the RFC https://wiki.php.net/rfc/shorter_attribute_syntax_change and I'm happy to answer any questions as best I can. -- - Joe Ferguson JoeFerguson.me osmihelp.org
