## Why is this an issue?

It is recommended not to declare more than one property per statement for the sake of code readability and maintainability. Declaring multiple properties in a single statement can make the code harder to understand and debug. It also increases the risk of introducing errors or overlooking specific property assignments.

## How to fix it

By declaring one property per statement, developers can easily identify and modify individual properties, improving code clarity and reducing potential mistakes.

### Code examples

#### Noncompliant code example

    <?php
    class Foo
    {
       private $bar = 1, $bar2 = 2;
    }

#### Compliant solution

    <?php
    class Foo
    {
       private $bar1 = 1;
       private $bar2 = 2;
    }
