CodeRunner: PHP Deprecation Error

I tried to run the given testsubmit.py file in our server which runs PHP 7.4.4, and I got the following error:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: 8192

Message: array_key_exists(): Using array_key_exists() on objects is deprecated. Use isset() or property_exists() instead

Filename: controllers/Restapi.php

Line Number: 175

I fixed this by changing the corresponding conditional to:

if (!property_exists($this->languages, $language))

I just posted here instead of GitHub because it seems that the CodeRunner admins are more active here. However, if you prefer, I can initiate a pull request in the repo. Thanks!

HI Michael. Thanks for the heads up on that. I'm running PHP 7.2 and wasn't seeing it.

I've pushed a new version of Jobe to github with several minor changes including a fix for that bug. My fix is different from yours because it turns out that the real problem was that the $languages variable was sometimes an associative array (as intended) but when json-encoded, cached then decoded by json-decode it turned into an object rather than an array. I've changed the json-decode to force an associative array again, as intended.

Hi Richard.

Thanks for the quick fix! Seems like everything is working fine for now. Will let you know if we find other issues.

Best,

Michael
