Switch to PHP Attributes

[ebitkov]

In version 3.30.0 the serializer made the annotations optional in favor of attributes.

Since the API in this project still uses annotations, this change makes this project not work by default. You have to configure an annotation reader manually now. Currently looking into how to do that. (see comment)

Considering the latest changes in the PHP ecosystem the switch to attributes seems to be overdue.

Thanks for pointing that out. First of all you are correct, attributes are pretty standard now, so very good point to use them here as well.
The update you mentioned is a minor update of the package and they decided to introduce a "B/C Break" change with that. Not common and rather unexpected. So as quick fix, just fix this package in your composer.json to the old version. For a more sustainable solution, feel free to open a PR for this feature.

As discussed here, just requiring doctrine/annotations via Composer seems to do the trick for now (tested it in my project).

Maybe adding the requirement into the composer.json for now should be sufficient for a hotfix until the annotations are rewritten as attributes?
