PHP 8 issue

[jf3218]

Hello,
With php8 Array and string offset access syntax with curly braces is no longer supported so I've fixed the line 3 in vutil.php jf3218@8655c0d

• Now I have this get_magic_quotes_gpc function has been deprecated. https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-magic-quotes-gpc.php

• You can see the error apache gave me here http://prntscr.com/10so7cq

Do you know a alternative to replace get_magic_quotes_gpc() in vsp.php line 1699 ?

Hello,

for the time being, I suggest to stick with php7 as there might be more that needs to be changed.
It basically needs to be migrated from php7.4 to php8, at least it needs to be updated where php8 had breaking changes.
There is a list on what changed: https://www.php.net/manual/en/migration80.php

They dropped a bunch of long deprecated functions like get_magic_quotes_gpc and beside that, there might be changes in how things work.

Regarding get_magic_quotes_gpc, you can just drop all if statements where it is being used.
This is exactly where I stopped a while ago.

You are more than welcome to contribute! :)

Best,
Martin

Hello,

I gave it another try and it looks like its working now.
It outputs warnings during import but seems to work.

Maybe you want to give it a try?
https://github.com/evilru/quake3-vsp-stats/tree/php8

Still need to check if it creates the same data as the master branch.

Best,
Martin
