5.2.0

5.2.0

Added

• Event system for hooking into the container lifecycle
  • Four event types: OnDefineEvent, BeforeResolveEvent, DefinitionResolvedEvent, ServiceResolvedEvent
  • Fluent filtering API: forType(), forTag(), forId(), where()
  • Container::listen() for registering filtered event listeners
  • Container::afterResolve() convenience method as a drop-in replacement for inflector()
  • Lazy event dispatch: events are only created when listeners are registered for that event type
  • EventDispatcher::hasListenersFor() to check whether listeners exist for a given event type
  • DefinitionInterface::getTags() for retrieving tags from definitions
  • Docs: https://container.thephpleague.com/5.x/events/
• Container::getDelegate(string $class) to retrieve a registered delegate container by type

Fixed

• Interface-to-concrete definitions now correctly resolve through the concrete's own registered definition instead of bypassing it via direct reflection (#275, #278)
• Definition::resolveClass() now throws ContainerException with actionable guidance when a class has unsatisfied constructor dependencies, instead of a raw ArgumentCountError

Deprecated

• Container::inflector() - use Container::afterResolve() or the event system instead. Will be removed in v6.0.

Changed

• DefinitionContainerInterface no longer extends EventAwareContainerInterface (removed)
• Shared definitions now receive a 'shared' tag automatically via addTag('shared')

Removed

• EventAwareContainerInterface - the event system is provided by EventAwareTrait on the concrete Container class, not as an interface contract
