ECDSA, phpseclib and PHP7: what is the current status?

[matrey]

Hi

I tried using ES512 but got the following error:

Fatal error: Uncaught InvalidArgumentException: phpseclib 1.0.0(LTS), even the latest 2.0.0, doesn't support PHP7 yet in /.../vendor/namshi/jose/src/Namshi/JOSE/Signer/OpenSSL/ECDSA.php:15

But phpseclib seems to be alright these days with PHP 7 (their builds pass on PHP 7 and 7.1, see https://travis-ci.org/phpseclib/phpseclib)

If I comment out the 2 version check blocks in Signer/OpenSSL/ECDSA.php then it seems to be working OK.

Is the block for PHP 7 still justified? If yes, could it at least be made more explicit in the README of this project? Also, would it be possible to emphasize the need to require phpseclib for ECSDA support in the same README?

Thanks

I'm having the same issue on PHP 7 and agree with @matrey that it seems to make sense to remove this block.

I use phpseclib 2.0 on PHP 7.1 without issues.

This is still an issue for me

• ES512
• phpseclib 2.0.21
• jose 7.2.3
