Yeah, please merge this PR or update the composer.json to require PHP >= 5.3.9. |

I had forgotten this PR until now, thanks @pableu for your attention. I agree it should be merged. I'm currently using my own branch of finediff in a project that runs on PHP 5.3.3, via composer's git capabilities, but that smells kinda hackish to me, considering there's only a single 4-line diff between it and yours. It would be nicer if I (or any other poor soul stuck with PHP 5.3.3) could just reference your package since it's already on packagist. I checked the output of the Travis builds and one of them seems to have failed due to a network error, hence the fail notice. I can assure you the corresponding PHPUnit tests passed successfully when I ran them on my environment. Regards. |
GranuarityInterface is the main interface of granularities. It should extend both \ArrayAccess and \Countable directly and shouln't define ArrayAccess methods like offsetExists() again. This kinda fixes cogpowered#2 even though the PHP 5.3 problem is not an issue here anymore.

Prior to PHP 5.3.9 a class could not implement two interfaces if they contained a method with the same name (see first note at http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.interfaces.php).
The Granularity class implements both GranularityInterface and ArrayAccess and they both specify the set of offset* methods, so this results in a fatal error when running on PHP < 5.3.9 (I tested it on PHP 5.3.3). There's really no need to specify this methods in GranularityInterface, given that they're already defined in ArrayAccess.
