syntax error, unexpected token “new”, expecting “)”¶
Description¶
This error is a variation of the named parameter typo: the missing semi colon between the name and the value leads to an identifier next to an unrelated operator. The suggestion to use a closing parenthese is valid, though not the only one.
Example¶
<?php
foo(arg new B());
class B {}
function foo(B $arg) {}
?>
Solutions¶
Add the missing
:
before the new operator.Add the missing
)
before the new operator, and add a semi-colon or a comman, depending on the context.
