PHP 7 obsolete feature

PHP4 style constructor

In PHP4, the function in the class can have the same name as the class name. This feature is Deprecated in PHP7 and will issue an E_DEPRECATED error. When the method name is the same as the class name, the class is not in the namespace, and the PHP5 constructor (__construct) does not exist, an E_DEPRECATED error will be generated.
