From: Operating system: Windows7 PHP version: 5.3.8 Package: Variables related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Late Static Bindings
Description: ------------ If I call method of the class "B" that implements class "A" that uses static, under some class "C" it tries to get static property of the "C", but not of the "B". And if I try to call B::inst() not under some class it works fine. Test script: --------------- class A { public static $_a = null; private function __construct() {} private function __clone() {} public function inst() { if (is_null(static::$_a)) { static::$_a = new static(); } return static::$_a; } } class B extends A { } class C { public function __construct() { B::inst(); } } Expected result: ---------------- B::$_a Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Access to undeclared static property: C::$_a -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55789&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=needdocs Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=55789&r=mysqlcfg
