Where is Security::getRequestData() defined? #3847

Closed srguglielmo closed 1 year ago

In the MySource.PHP.GetRequestData sniff, it references using Security::getRequestData() instead of using $_POST/$_GET/etc directly.

Where is the Security class defined...? How do I use this getRequestData() method? I've searched around on Google and it does not seem to be a public/standard library for PHP.

The MySource standard is a bit of an odd one out in that it appears to be a standard for a specific code base and shouldn't really be part of PHP_CodeSniffer.

The standard will be removed in PHPCS 4.0 in its entirety. See #2471

Good question, probably in the codebase for which the MySource standard was written long ago, but where is now and whether it still exists is a mystery ;-)

Got it. Thanks!
