Problem

Instantiating CwpAtomFeed on CMS 6 throws:

TypeError: CWP\Core\Feed\CwpAtomFeed::__construct(): Argument #1 ($entries) must be of type SilverStripe\ORM\SS_List, SilverStripe\ORM\DataList given, called in .../silverstripe/framework/src/Core/Injector/InjectionCreator.php on line 26

In CMS 6 the SS_List interface moved from SilverStripe\ORM\SS_List to SilverStripe\Model\List\SS_List. The old SilverStripe\ORM\SS_List no longer exists, so the $entries type hint in CwpAtomFeed::__construct() resolves to a missing interface. DataList now implements the new interface, so it never satisfies the stale hint and every construction fails with the TypeError above.

Fix

Import SS_List from SilverStripe\Model\List — the interface DataList actually implements, and the same one the parent RSSFeed::__construct() already type-hints.

Verification

  • SilverStripe\ORM\SS_List confirmed absent in framework 6; SilverStripe\Model\List\SS_List present and implemented by DataList.
  • Parent RSSFeed::__construct() already type-hints SilverStripe\Model\List\SS_List, so the argument now passes through consistently.
  • php -l clean; imports remain alphabetically ordered (PSR2).

The other PHPUnit failures on this branch (AtomFeedTest, PasswordStrengthTest) pre-date this change and stem from separate incomplete CMS 6 namespace moves; they are intentionally left out of this PR to keep it scoped to the CwpAtomFeed TypeError.

- AtomFeedTest: ArrayList moved to SilverStripe\Model\List
- PasswordStrengthTest + security.yml: PasswordValidator moved to
  Security\Validation and split; bind the rules-based RulesPasswordValidator
  so the NZISM policy is preserved (CMS 6 now defaults to EntropyPasswordValidator)
- Remove orphaned PBKDF2Test (encryptor source removed in 17c55c5)
