Symfony version(s) affected

5.4.47

Description

Afterphp/php-src@5544be7 (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/marking_return_value_as_important), Composer does not work on PHP 8.5 on Windows anymore:

• flock() "demands" that its return value is either used or explicitly ignored (using the new(void) cast)
• WindowsPipes callsflock() without using (or explicitly ignoring) its return value
• flock() triggers anE_WARNING
• ThisE_WARNING leads to an error

You can see the error inhttps://github.com/sebastianbergmann/php-code-coverage/actions/runs/14234238052/job/39890575323:Error: The return value of function flock() should either be used or intentionally ignored by casting it as (void), as locking the stream might have failed.

How to reproduce

Usesymfony/process with PHP 8.5 on Windows.

Possible Solutions

• Use the return value offlock() and throw an exception when it isfalse (recommended)
• Assign the return value offlock() to a variable to work around the problem in PHP < 8.5 (not recommended)
• Cast the return value offlock() tovoid to work around the problem in PHP >= 8.5 (not recommended)
