unexpected T_FUNCTION due to anonymous functions used in Server 2.3.1

Question

Please be patient with me... I'm newbie in OCS and English is not my first language

I've just upgraded OCS Server from 2.0.1 to 2.3.1. All fine here!

I visit URL

Nothing is rendered

cat /etc/httpd/logs/error_log

[Mon Oct 16 19:18:00 2017] [error] [client 10.225.213.23] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /usr/share/ocsinventory-reports/ocsreports/require/menu/Menu.php on line 57

    /**
     * Sort the Menu
     *
     * @return number
     */
    public function sortMenu() {
        foreach ($this->getChildren() as $menu) {
            if ($menu->hasChildren()) {
                $menu->sortMenu();
            }
        }

        uasort($this->_children, function($a, $b) {            <----------   Line 57
            if ($a->getPriority() == $b->getPriority()) {
                return 0;
            }
            return ($a->getPriority() < $b->getPriority()) ? -1 : 1;
        });
    }

Well now:

Your requirements still says PHP 4.3.2 or higher but http://php.net/manual/en/functions.anonymous.php says anonymous functions become available since 5.3.0.

Obviously I MUST upgrade my PHP installation... or NOT... Am I missing something?

Thanks in advanced !!!!

Hi,

The way to 2.3.1 is 2.0.1 -> 2.1.x -> 2.2.x -> 2.3.1. Then you need to update php.
