DaDaBIK crashed in custom_function.php

[Michael24680]

Hello,

I have a problem with custom_functions.php

My customer need a function, that export the data in a Microsoft Excel template.
So I have create a button the called a function dadabik_export in the file custom_function.php

This dadabik_export function used the library PHPSpreadsheet (https://github.com/PHPOffice/PhpSpreadsheet)

If I embedded this in the custom_functions.php file, the whole DaDaBIK application crashed with this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'use' (T_USE) in /home/xxx/www.test.com/entwicklung/pro/include/custom_functions.php on line 20

And the line 20 is: use PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Spreadsheet;

If I use the PHPSpreadsheet outside from DaDaBIK in a normal PHP file (but also in the folder include), all works fine.

Where can the problem be?

Regards and thanks
Michael

Hello,
you can use "USE" only in the global scope, is the line 20 inside a function definition? If yes, try to move it outside (and if you have some related require statements, move them before the USE statement).

Best,
