PHP version: 5.3CVS-2008-04-04 (CVS)
PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related
Bug description: Trouble with scope resolution operator being used twice
Description:
------------
The problem is that a::$b::d() causes error, where a is a class with
static variable $b, which points to a seperate class c, which has the
static function d.
I know other people have encountered this problem. One person told me the
only way they knew to deal with this was call_user_func() this seems like
something that would be very important to fix. it is for me, at least.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
//Tested on PHP 5.3,
Class a {
public static $b ='c';
}
Class c {
public static function d()
{
return 'this works';
}
}
a::$b; // 'c'
c::d(); // 'this works'
a::$b::d(); /* this crashes with the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in C:\Program
Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\testobj.php on line 17
*/
?>
Expected result:
----------------
I expected that a::$b::d() would return 'this works', as opposed to
throwing an error at me.
Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in C:\Program
Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\testobj.php on line 17
