.. include:: /Includes.rst.txt .. _deprecation-85646: ========================================================= Deprecation: #85646 - Deprecate eID implemented as script ========================================================= See :issue:`85646` Description =========== Calling a frontend eID as a direct script call has been marked as deprecated. Setting a PHP eID include like this triggers PHP :php:`E_USER_DEPRECATED` error:: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['eID_include']['myEid'] = 'EXT:myExt/Resources/Php/MyAjax.php'; This is not valid anymore. Instead, a class / method combination should be used:: $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['FE']['eID_include']['myEid'] = \MyVendor\MyExt\Controller\MyEidController::class . '::myMethod'; The main difference is that a script call does not execute code if calling :php:`require()` on it directly anymore, but needs a proper registration including an entry method to be called. This increases encapsulation and security. Impact ====== eIDs which are registered with a direct script include trigger a PHP :php:`E_USER_DEPRECATED` error. Affected Installations ====================== 3rd party extensions which implement eIDs with a script to a file instead of a class->method combination. Migration ========= Register eID with a class::method syntax like :php:`\TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\MyClass::myMethod` instead. .. index:: Frontend, NotScanned
