Description: ------------ When calling CodeSniffer an error is thrown: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM, expecting ',' or ';' in /usr/share/php/PHP/CodeSniffer/CLI.php on line 311 Though CodeSniffer is said to depend on php 5.1.x this is obviously wrong. CLI.php uses syntax that is supported with 5.3.x or greater. Please provide new dependency in the description or support old syntax. Best regards, Alexander.

The syntax chosen was just a mistake and PHPCS should still support 5.2. I've committed a fix here: https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer/commit/4b615f4e1dd6d3a2961e9e01da becc571e9c842a
