Joomla4 + 2.7.2+build.2022.05.09.18.01.50.cff9cffac + PHP8.1 Deprecated: str_rep was created by djanubis

Hi,
Using config as in title on a development site, I get frequent messages like:
"( ! ) Deprecated: str_replace(): Passing null to parameter #3 ($subject) of type array|string is deprecated in /var/www/html/J41/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbprivacy/library/Trigger/FieldTrigger.php on line 295"

PHP8.1 has deprecated using null as an empty string in parameters. So, all calls to php_replace within CB code should be like

Code:

str_replace( '[field_id]', $fieldId, $field->params->get( 'cbprivacy_asset', '', GetterInterface::STRING ) )

instead current code

Code:

str_replace( '[field_id]', $fieldId, $field->params->get( 'cbprivacy_asset', null, GetterInterface::STRING ) )

As GetterInterface is STRING, passing an empty string as parameter fixes this deprecated warning.

Is this a real solution or is there another way ?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

This is now fixed in latest build release of CB Privacy. Have made all strings strict return a string.

Please let us know if you see any others. Also keep in mind these are just deprecations. We have PHP 8.1 compatibility, but if you've full error reporting and debug mode on you'll see those deprecations which won't hurt anything for the time being. Please also keep in mind Joomla itself is still working on clearing 8.1 deprecation notices as well. You can track Joomla progress below.
