PHP 8.1

[soulm69]

Hi PhpSpreadsheet Team,

May I know when will PHP 8.1 be supported?

Thank you.

Php8.1 has been supported for some time now, and Php8.2 is now supported as well. Are you having a particular problem?

Hi oleibman,

I have a web project that creates XLSX files.

On PHP 8.0 (64bit), it is working perfectly. But on PHP 8.1 (64bit), I can't open the resulting XLSX file, says the file is corrupted or something.

I have PhpSpreadsheet 1.25.2, installed it using Composer.

I use $xlsWriter = IOFactory::createWriter($xls, 'Xlsx') and $xlsWriter->save($fileName).

We'd need a bit more information about the actual content of that file: we run an extensive set of tests against all supported versions of PHP, including 8.1, 8.2 and the nightly build for every commit or PR to the library; these include tests for the save() method. It's possible that there is some feature that isn't fully covered by those tests, but we can't guess what that might be.

So what is the content and structure of your file; are you using features like headers/footers, conditional formatting, data validations, tables, etc?

Does MS Excel try to fix the file when it is opened? (that's normal behaviour if there is a problem with Excel file content) If so, what messages does it display?

Is anything being written to your logs files?

Sorry, it's all good now.

I had a different error not related to PhpSpreadsheet.

Thank you!

hey people, can anybody give me a site or sth where I can see some php code examples ?

I don't why it doesn't remove the elements from the array

I don't why it doesn't remove the elements from the array

That seems to be a very general PHP question, nothing whatsoever to do with PhpSpreadsheet, so I don't really know why you've chosen to ask it here.

But in answer, it is removing elements from the array... the problem is that you're removing it from the array that's inside the card_deal() function; that won't change anything outside that function.
If you want the $tab array to be changed in your calling function, then you have to declare it call by reference in your function definition.

function card_deal(array &$tab) {
    $ran = rand(0, count($tab) - 1);
    $card = $tab[$ran];
    array_splice($tab, $ran, 1);
    return $card;
}

Note the & in the function definition.

P.S. Posting images of code is extremely unhelpful: I can't test/run an image of code, I have to write it out by hand, which is creating work and using more of my time to answer your question. Couldn't you have used copy/paste from your IDE? You can wrap code examples in triple backticks here, because we use markdown.

okay thank you sir, I'm sorry as you might have noticed I'm new to github and I haven't even noticed the topic.
Sorry for the inconvenience

github isn't a general code Q&A site: this is a repository for the PhpSpreadsheet code library, so we provide the code and answer questions about that specific library. Sites like StackOverflow are much better places to ask general coding questions

okay thanks I've made not of that
