Fix symfony/intl for newer PHP Versions
=======================================

[](#fix-symfonyintl-for-newer-php-versions)

```
composer require sulu/symfony-intl-fix
```

To avoid problems you should also exclude the default Locale class from the classmap in your `composer.json`:

```
{
    "autoload": {
        "exclude-from-classmap": [
             "vendor/symfony/intl/Locale.php",
             "vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Component/Intl/Locale.php"
        ]
    }
}
```

**Affected PHP Versions:**

- `^7.3.4`
- `^7.2.17`
- `^7.1.28`

If you use one of the above PHP Version and an older Symfony Intl version than `^3.4.24` or `^4.2.7` symfony/intl will end up in an infinite loop.

This package will overwrite the Symfony [Locale](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/master/src/Symfony/Component/Intl/Locale.php) to avoid this infinite loop. Projects using Symfony 3 or 4 should just update there symfony package. This fix is mainly provided for Symfony 2 projects.

**What was changed to fix the issue?**

The change in `Locale.php` is really simple:

```
-            return locale_compose($localeSubTags);
+            $fallback = locale_compose($localeSubTags);
+
+            return false !== $fallback ? $fallback : null;
```
