Moving to devtools

[Ultimater]

Devtools relies on the Phalcon\Version class to check Phalcon's version.
This class had some of its methods deprecated and stated it was going to be removed in V5.
But the getVersion() method didn't. Thus the class shouldn't have disappeared in V5.
This would be a bug in cphalcon, not devtools.

The class is under the Support namespace in v5. We just have to change its instantiation and signature (no longer static methods).

[niden]

This needs to go back to devtools. Also, the question will be about versioning i.e. devtools for v5

[Ultimater]

@niden Sorry for the confusion, I thought it was missing functionality being alarmed at seeing the class disappear without first deprecating the class with an alias class. But this would be a major version bump so can't be too picky as breaking changes are expected.

I'll work on implementing this in devtools.

This has been fixed in 4.2.0

i'm having this same issue.

[analista-marlon]

It's a simple fix. But since I'm new with phalcon 5, I needed to use AI for some help.
Because of the update, as said above, we need to change two files:

/phalcon-devtools/src/Version.php
"use Phalcon\Version as PhVersion;"
to
"use Phalcon\Support\Version as PhVersion;"

/phalcon-devtools/phalcon
"$vendor = sprintf('Phalcon DevTools (%s)', Version::get());"
to
"
// changed from 'Version::get()' to $version var
$versionInstance = new \Phalcon\Support\Version();
$version = $versionInstance->get();

$vendor = sprintf('Phalcon DevTools (%s)', $version);

"
it must be sufficient to be able to run phalcon command, but be aware, others will come.
