RequiredToOptionalFunctionParametersSniff error when including ruleset #793
Description
I wanted to include this in a general ruleset for my organization for use in multiple projects. I didn't want to rely on users configuring installed_paths.
so I added the following line to my orgs ruleset.xml
<rule ref="vendor/phpcompatibility/php-compatibility/PHPCompatibility" />This works for every single other Codesniffer ruleset I've run into the past, most recently I've included MediaWiki's ruleset this way.
But when I do it this way, I get the following error when running in windows:
> phpcs -p
Fatal error: Cannot declare class PHPCompatibility\Sniffs\FunctionUse\RequiredToOptionalFunctionParametersSniff, because the name is already in use in C:\Code\MyCoolProject\vendor\phpcompatibility\php-compatibility\PHPCompatibility\Sniffs\FunctionUse\RequiredToOptionalFunctionParametersSniff.php on line 310

> phpcs -p --standard=vendor\phpcompatibility\php-compatibility\PHPCompatibility --ignore=vendor --runtime-set testVersion 5.0- .
.. 2 / 2 (100%)
Time: 333ms; Memory: 10MBit works fine.
I realise I could either run the PHPCompatability separately from my own ruleset (what I'm doing now), or I could require users to configure installed_paths.
But perhaps you could please troubleshoot this problem with your package?
Thanks
