Changed

• 📌 The NewFunctionArrayDereferencing sniff will now also check method calls for array dereferencing, not just function calls. #229. Fixes #227.

Fixed

• 🐛 The EmptyNonVariable sniff would throw false positives for variable variables and for array access with a (partially) variable array index. #212. Fixes #210.
• 🐛 The NewFunctionArrayDereferencing sniff would throw false positives for lines of code containing both a function call as well as square brackets, even when they were unrelated. #228. Fixes #226.
• 🐛 ParameterShadowSuperGlobals sniff would report false positives for lowercase/mixed cased variables shadowing superglobals. #218. Fixes #214.
• 🐛 The determineNamespace() utility method now accounts properly for namespaces within scoped declare() statements. #221
• 📚 Readme: Logo alignment in the Credits section. #233
