From: wolters dot fl at gmail dot com Operating system: Microsoft Windows Version 6.2.9 PHP version: 5.4.13 Package: Class/Object related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:It is possible to directly call the magic method "__construct".
Description: ------------ It is possible to directly call the magic method "__construct". This should NOT be possible, since one cannot create immutable objects with the current behaviour. In addition, a direct call to the magic method "__clone" is not possible and raises an "\E_FATAL". Both magic methods deal with object creation, so the behaviour is inconsistent between them. I am using "php-5.4.13-nts-Win32-VC9-x86" on Microsoft Windows Version 6.2.9 x64(Windows 8 64 bit). Test script: --------------- https://gist.github.com/FlorianWolters/5195734 Expected result: ---------------- The method call: $example->__construct(); should raise an "\E_FATAL" with the following message: "Cannot call __construct() method on objects - use 'new <Class>' instead in [...] on line 21" -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64454&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=64454&r=mysqlcfg
