HHVM 4.159 is released! 4.154 - 4.158 remain supported, as do the 4.128 and 4.153 LTS releases.

Highlights

  • Add an attribute <<__SafeGlobalVariable>> to mark global variables as safe, ensuring no errors/warnings would be raised from writing to this global variable, when --enable-global-write-check is passed to hh_server. Note that this attribute will be renamed to <<__SafeForGlobalWriteCheck>> in the next release.
  • Add a quickfix for missing switch fallthrough comment (// FALLTHROUGH).

Breaking Changes

  • Make all array index read error codes the same. The error code 4435, 4298, and 4005 are replaced by 4324.
