Question about this example:



<?php declare(strict_types=1);

class SomeTestClass

/** @var string


Why PhpStorm 2018.3.5 is not informing me about wrong code in something() related to using nullable value as a method argument which should not be nullable? I'm asking about this because when $name property will be null, then I would have an error in my app.



Version with



public function something(): void

/** @var string


also does not work.

    I can replicate this in 2018.3.5 with PHP 7.2 inspection. Code definitely results in a fatal and I'm unable to convince PHPStorm that there's anything wrong - even PHPDoc with just NULL as the return for getName doesn't give a warning.

PhpStorm is not very strict when analysing code. For example, when injecting property values through constructor, it does not look at declared property type when autocompleting methods and properties, but rather at the type that was injected into constructor.



For very strict analysis, try out PHPStan. Unlike PhpStorm, you can easily add it to your CI build. See the resulting error for your example.

    I think PhpStorm inspection is broken with instance variables type annotations.



    If I use directly:



    $this->setSomething(null);


    I get the type error.
    However, if I directly assign null to $this->sth, I get no error at all:



    $this->sth = null;


    Basically, don't rely on variable type annotations to be correctly inspected with strict_types=1
