HHVM 4.129 is released! This release marks the end of support for 4.123; HHVM 4.124–4.128 remain supported, as do the 4.102 and 4.128 LTS releases.

Highlights

  • hackfmt --in-place (or -i) no longer writes to files that do not have formatting changes.
  • added hackfmt --check-formatting which, given a list of files, prints which files would be modified by hackfmt --in-place.
  • hackfmt now correctly handles multi-line string literals.
  • fixes DateTimeZone::listIdentifiers() returning an empty set.
  • fixes the UTC timezone not being recognized.

Breaking Changes

  • isset() no longer permits inout arguments.
  • Many built-in exceptions including RuntimeException and LogicException now extend the new ExceptionWithPureGetMessage class; all descendents that override getMessage() must mark it as pure, e.g. getMessage()[].
