Description:
------------
The magic overloading function __get() can't seem to access inherited,
non-visible properties. If you overload with __get() in a base class,
then extend that class, the base class's __get() will return NULL when
accessing an inaccessible property of the child class. The __get()
function doesn't even see the property as being set (if you run an
isset($name) in the __get() call, it returns false.
Reproduce code:
---------------
class testParent {
function __get($name){
return $this->$name;
}
}
class testChild extends testParent {
private $testVar = 'Bar';
}
$t = new testChild;
echo 'Foo: ' . $t->testVar;
Expected result:
----------------
You would expect the code to output 'Foo: Bar'. instead, it outputs
'Foo:', because the __get() in testParent apparently can't see the
private vars in testChild.
Actual result:
--------------
Output's 'Foo:', withOUT the 'Bar'
