 New Comment:

In 5.3 it works if you change self:: to static:: like this 



Test:

<?php

class A {



   static $data = array('bar' => 99, 'foo' => 101);

   

   function __get($name) {



       if (isset(static::$data[$name])) 

           return static::$data[$name];



       return null;

   }

}



class B extends A {

   

}





$object = new B();



print $object->foo;



Result

------

101

Description:
------------
Would it be possible to have magic setter/getter functions available on
static 

context ?



The documentation says "Property overloading only works in object
context. These 

magic methods will not be triggered in static context."



I would find it useful on a static context where I have a class A
extending 

another class B, to access





Test script:
---------------
Example:



Class A {



   static $data = array('bar' => 99, 'foo' => 101);

   

   function __get($name) {



       if (isset(self::$data[$name])) 

           return self::$data[$name];



       return null;

   }

}



Class B extends A {

   

}





echo B::$foo;

Expected result:
----------------
echo B::$foo; 



In the example should return 101.

Actual result:
--------------
In the example it triggers a fatal error.
