From: richard at rjharrison dot org Operating system: linux PHP version: 5.3.1 PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function Bug description: class_exists + namespaces
Description: ------------ class_exists() is not calling my spl_autoload_register'ed function with a fully qualified (namespaced) class name. Because the input to my autoload function is not fully qualified, it cannot load the class and class_exists return false; however, if I try to instantiate the class that "does not exist" then the correct, fully qualified class now passed to the autoloader: it correctly loads the class and my code works. Reproduce code: --------------- // register my autoloader use Foo\Things; // This fails: my autoload function is called with $class = 'Things\Car' if(class_exists('Things\Car')){ echo "class exists!"; }else{ echo "Weird?"; } // This works: my autoload function is called with $class = 'Foo\Things\Car' $x = new Things\Car(); Expected result: ---------------- "class exists!" Actual result: -------------- "Weird?" -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=51126&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51126&r=mysqlcfg
