You are tasked with converting PHP 5.2 code to mak it compatible with PHP 7.4 ## Overview You are tasked with upgrading a legacy PHP 5.2 codebase to PHP 7.4+ compatibility by applying specific code transformations. Copy all files from `C:\Quantum` to `C:\Quantum74` with the necessary modifications applied. ## Source and Destination - **Source Directory**: `C:\Quantum` (and all subdirectories) - **Destination Directory**: `C:\Quantum74` (create matching subdirectory structure) ## Required Code Transformations ### 1. Replace split() Function - **Find**: All instances of `split()` function calls - **Replace**: With `preg_split()` function calls - **Note**: `split()` was removed in PHP 7.0 - **Example**: `split(',', $string)` → `preg_split('/,/', $string)` ### 2. Fix Unparenthesized Concatenation with Arithmetic - **Find**: Expressions using `.` (concatenation) before `+` or `-` (arithmetic) without parentheses - **Fix**: Add parentheses to explicitly define order of operations - **Example**: `$a . $b + $c` → `$a . ($b + $c)` or `($a . $b) + $c` (based on intended logic) ### 3. Remove Parameter Shadowing of Superglobals - **Find**: Function parameters named the same as superglobals (`$_POST`, `$_GET`, `$_SESSION`, `$_COOKIE`, `$_SERVER`, `$_FILES`, `$_ENV`, `$GLOBALS`) - **Fix**: Rename these parameters to avoid conflicts - **Example**: `function test($_POST)` → `function test($postData)` ### 4. Fix Duplicate Function Parameters - **Find**: Functions with multiple parameters having identical names - **Fix**: Ensure all function parameters have unique names - **Example**: `function test($a, $b, $a)` → `function test($a, $b, $c)` ### 5. Fix break/continue with 0 Argument - **Find**: `break 0;` or `continue 0;` statements - **Fix**: Remove the 0 argument or replace with positive integer - **Example**: `break 0;` → `break;` or `continue 0;` → `continue;` ### 6. Remove Magic Quotes Related Code - **Find and Remove**: - `get_magic_quotes_runtime()` function calls - `set_magic_quotes_runtime()` function calls - References to `magic_quotes_runtime` INI directive - **Action**: Remove these calls entirely as magic quotes are obsolete ### 7. Remove Deprecated INI Directives - **Find and Remove**: - `mbstring.func_overload` INI directive references - `safe_mode` INI directive references - **Action**: Remove or comment out these configurations ### 8. Replace __autoload() Function - **Find**: `__autoload()` function definitions - **Replace**: With `spl_autoload_register()` based autoloading - **Example**: ```php // Old function __autoload($class) { include $class . '.php'; } // New spl_autoload_register(function($class) { include $class . '.php'; }); ``` ### 9. Fix Nested Ternary Operators - **Find**: Multiple consecutive ternary operators without explicit parentheses - **Fix**: Add parentheses to define evaluation order - **Example**: `$a ? $b : $c ? $d : $e` → `$a ? $b : ($c ? $d : $e)` ## Execution Steps 1. **Create destination directory structure**: Mirror the entire `C:\Quantum` directory structure in `C:\Quantum74` 2. **Copy all files**: Copy every file from source to destination 3. **Apply transformations**: Process each PHP file and apply the above transformations 4. **Validate syntax**: Ensure modified files have valid PHP syntax 5. **Generate report**: List all files modified and changes made ## Important Notes - Preserve original file permissions and timestamps where possible - Maintain exact directory structure - Only modify `.php` files for the PHP-specific changes - Keep backups implicit (original files remain in `C:\Quantum`) - Test critical functionality after transformation - Be careful with string contexts when fixing concatenation/arithmetic expressions ## Success Criteria - All files copied from `C:\Quantum` to `C:\Quantum74` - All `split()` functions replaced with `preg_split()` - No deprecated function calls remain - All code transformations listed earlier are applied correctly - No syntax errors in modified PHP files - Code maintains original functionality while being PHP 7.4+ compatible
