php7cc is a command-line tool that scans PHP 5.3-5.6 codebases for statements that may break on PHP 7, producing reports with file names, line numbers, and problem descriptions. It detects errors that will definitely fail on PHP 7 and warnings about behavior changes, but does not automatically fix code.

Use cases

  • check if my php 5 codebase is compatible with php 7
  • find code that breaks when upgrading from php 5.6 to php 7
  • scan legacy php project for php 7 migration issues
  • detect deprecated php constructs before upgrading php version
  • generate report of php 7 incompatible statements in my code
  • audit old php application before php 7 migration

When to choose

  • migrating a legacy PHP 5.3-5.6 codebase to PHP 7 and need a targeted compatibility report
  • you want a lightweight phar or composer-installed CLI tool for one-off migration audits

When to avoid

  • starting a new project or needing ongoing static analysis - the project is no longer supported
  • migrating to PHP 8+ - use phan or phpstan instead
  • you need automated code fixing rather than detection and reporting
