I'm not sure this is what the issue is about. From what I can read, they need a ternary style instead:

when foo ? then-this : else-that.

#[When('expression', otherwise: new Bar)] would be closer to what's described in the issue.

(please take time to give example in PR descriptions for new feature so that it's easy to bootstrap the doc / write a blog post.)

I did so to be consistent with the Expression constraint, taking the last issue comment example as reference which seemed more in line with what already exists. But if we don't care about this point, let's do as you say, works for me as well 👍

My bad indeed, will do!

I don't see the point of a negate option here sorry.

Hey!

Given your proposal, the example from#57370 will become:

#[Assert\When('this.getProduct()?.getNature()?.value === "SESSION"',newAssert\IsNull())]#[Assert\When('this.getProduct()?.getNature()?.value === "SESSION"',newAssert\NotNull(), negate:true)]

right?

What about this syntax suggested in the issue and by Nicolas above?

#[Assert\When('this.getProduct()?.getNature()?.value === "SESSION"',newAssert\IsNull(),     otherwise:newAssert\NotNull())]

or maybe aWhenNot assertion?

otherwise solution is nice, lets implement this one! I've got one last thing to figure with parent groups propagation in nested constraints and it should be good 👍

It's been more complicated than expected because of how composite constraints work. Their internals has to be updated to accept multiple fields that contains nested constraints (and propagate groups). For this,Composer::getCompositeOption() return type has to be widen toarray|string. If I'm right, this does not break BC as child classes are allowed to narrow the return type.

So here's a new implementation, tell me what you think 👍

All comments addressed, thanks!

Should a PR be sent to update toget_debug_type($this) all calls tostatic::class? There are a lot to them after the deprecation of constraints arguments as array (73 occurrences it seems in Validator)

get_debug_type is to be used in exception messages. that's better, but not critical either.

Thank you@alexandre-daubois.
