Status on php 7 support?

[w3l]

The klarna docs claims:

PHP >= 5.x (PHP 7 is currently not supported)

kco_php seems to support PHP 7, based on our internal tests.

• No issues found testing the SDK code with alexia/php7mar and sstalle/php7cc.
• No PHP 7 issues with forked code in travis(disclaimer: I do not fully understand Travis/GIT).
• Everything works as expected running Checkout on our dev-site again testdrive(all snippets rendering, we get the push, no errors in our log-files, etc)
• Everything works as expected running Checkout on our live-site again klarnas live system(all snippets rendering, we get the push, no errors in our log-files, etc)

The reply contacting [email protected] was basically(paraphrasing a bit):

It might work under php 7, but we do not support php 7. It has not been prioritized(to test php 7 support), so we do not know if it works or not.

I assumed that the lack of support for php 7 was due to either major code rewrites needed or that it would break compatibility with earlier php 5.x versions. Not wanting to test the code was an unexpected and a bit disappointing reason.

It would feel a lot better to get official php 7 support in klarna checkout before we switch php version on our live server.

Has anyone in the community run into any issues with using Klarna Checkout on PHP 7?

Update: We have been running kco_php on php 7 for a couple of months with no issues.

Yeah, it's pretty dissapointing that they obviously does not care to keep this maintained.

Seems like new website design took priority over working SDK. ;-)
