on Q1, Q2
While it sounds logical, you have to find out that you are using
static variables. The way i understand it is that when you used self::
$property it reads only as A::$property so extending it should not
affect the static variables coz B is not A on static variables. I
would suggest you to just override the method() on class B
Q3
abstract class A {
protected static $property = false; # Q1
public static function method() { # Q2
return self::$property;
}
}
class B extends A {
protected static $property = true; # Q1
public static function method() { # Q2
return self::$property;
}
}
var_dump(B::method());
