Re: [PHP-DEV] Accessing child constants from base class

[Ard Biesheuvel]

This works fine for me:

abstract class Base {

        abstract function getElementName();

        function getName()
        {
                return $this->getElementName();
        }
}
class Derived extends Base {

        const ElementName = 'DerivedElementName';

        function getElementName()
        {
                return ElementName;
        }
}
$c = new Derived();
echo $c->getName();
