ID: 51888 Updated by: m...@php.net Reported by: j dot jeising at gmail dot com Summary: overloaded __set is called from parent class -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Bug Package: Class/Object related Operating System: Mac OS X PHP Version: 5.3.2 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php YOU call parent::__set() which assigns an unkown property, which in turn calls the __set() of the child. Jeeeeez Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-22 17:17:11] j dot jeising at gmail dot com Description: ------------ If you overwrite __set in a child class, the parent implementation is called first and than triggers the child version. I found another bug, which says that you should implement the __set method in the parent class, but it in this case both methods are called. A similar bug is reported in #44807, but it's only about the recursion prevention. Test script: --------------- <?php class Foo { function __set($key, $value) { $this->{$key} = $value . ' (Foo)'; } } class Bar extends Foo { function __set($key, $value) { $this->{$key} = $value . ' (Bar)'; } function set() { parent::__set('foobar', 'Test'); } } $bar = new Bar(); $bar->set(); echo $bar->foobar; ?> Expected result: ---------------- Test (Foo) Actual result: -------------- Test (Foo) (Bar) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51888&edit=1
