Description:
------------
i'm often making heavy use of the decorator pattern.
while this works in c++ or java, php tells me the 'protected' context
does not work.
how's this to interpret?
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
abstract class A {
protected abstract function func();
}
class Decorator extends A {
private $_decorated;
public function __construct(A $a) {
$this -> _decorated = $a;
}
protected function func() {
$this -> _decorated -> func();
}
public function doCall() {
$this -> func();
}
}
class ASmall extends A {
protected function func() {
printf("%s::%s called!\n",__CLASS__,__FUNCTION__);
}
}
$a = new ASmall();
$dec = new Decorator($a);
$dec -> doCall();
die();
Expected result:
----------------
ASmall::func called!
Actual result:
--------------
<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>: Call to protected method ASmall::func() from
context 'Decorator' in <b>fileName</b> on line <b>12</b><br />
------------------------------------------------------------------------
