Psalm finds error

[florisluiten]

We run into issues when using the snowplow tracker when we run psalm on our code. This yields an error, that we cannot fix in our own code but relies on the vendor code (of snowplow-tracker)

STR

Make a new project, run composer require snowplow/snowplow-tracker vimeo/psalm. Create a new source file src/MyEmitter.php with the following contents:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

use Snowplow\Tracker\Emitters\SyncEmitter;
use Snowplow\Tracker\Subject;
use Snowplow\Tracker\Tracker;

final class SnowplowTrackerFactory
{
    public function method(): Tracker {
        $emitter = new SyncEmitter('http://example.com', 'https');

        return new Tracker($emitter, new Subject(), 'whatever', 'app-id');
    }
}

Now run ./vendor/bin/psalm --init followed by ./vendor/bin/psalm, and then ./vendor/bin/psalm again (the second call uses the cache, that is critical in this case).

What I expect that psalm does not fail, for there is no error in my code. However, it fails because it is unable to determine the type.

When I apply the following patch:

diff --git a/vendor/snowplow/snowplow-tracker/src/Tracker.php b/vendor/snowplow/snowplow-tracker/src/Tracker.php

psalm no longer returns failures.

Environment is linux, might be relevant since this is an issue with casing and linux have a case-sensitive filesystem by default. Also see #136

Hi guys, two years have passed... Did you investigated this bug? Its annoying and require really small changes to fix it.
