From: benno at transmog dot com dot au Operating system: Linux, but probably irrelevant PHP version: 5.3.0alpha2 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Namespace resolution is not done when creating objects of a variable class name
Description: ------------ Suppose you have a namespace that contains: - a function that has "new $blah ();" - the class $blah The instantiation will generate a fatal error if the namespace is not explicitly specified. I assume then that namespace resolution is not done when instantiating an object of a variable class name. This is similar to Bug #45197, but I don't think it's quite the same thing. Classes must know, at runtime, which namespace they belong to for the runtime namespace resolution described in the manual to work - http://php.net/manual/en/language.namespaces.definition.php Please advise either way.
