HHVM 4.39 is released! Since the 4.32 release has long term support, it remains supported, as do the 4.8 LTS and 4.33–4.38 releases.

Highlights

• Removed redundant typechecker output for some errors related to type constants (such as the second part of “Expected ClassName::T / resulting from expanding the type constant ClassName::T”).

Breaking Changes

• Improved typechecker output for errors related to mismatches between int, float, num and dynamic. In rare cases this may result in a typechecker error moving to a different location, e.g. from where a value is assigned to where it is used.
• The callback passed to set_pre_timeout_handler() must now accept a nullable wait handle argument (?Awaitable<mixed>). The wait handle will have a value when the callback is invoked right after a wait handle had finished. The wait handle is required in order to get a good backtrace. This is a similar behavior to the wait handle that is returned in the IntervalTimer class.
