Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. That's expected. You do a non-static call to a non-static method from a unrelated class using classname::method(), this will cause PHP to mess with the actual call context, so that $this in foo::testFoo will be an object of bar. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-10-29 04:45:31] abhibeckert at gmail dot com Description: ------------ If you declare class method without declaring it as static and then call it as static, under certain circumstances get_called_class() will return an incorrect result. I realise it's technically incorrect to not declare a method as static, But some code needs to be backwards compatible with previous versions of PHP, where declaring a method as static will give a syntax error. Reproduce code: --------------- class foo { static public function test() { var_dump(get_called_class()); } public function testTwo() { var_dump(get_called_class()); } } class bar { public function test() { foo::test(); } public function testTwo() { foo::testTwo(); } } echo "outside a class\n"; foo::test(); bar::testTwo(); echo "in a class\n"; $bar = new bar(); $bar->test(); $bar->testTwo(); Expected result: ---------------- outside a class foo foo in a class foo foo Actual result: -------------- outside a class foo foo in a class foo bar ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=50031&edit=1
