Operating system: Redhat Linux 9.0 / Apache 2.0.46
PHP version: 5.0.0b2 (beta2)
PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related
Bug description: Object defined before object - error
Description:
------------
With PHP 4 you could create the object variable before the actual object
was defined. This doesnt seem to be true in 5. If you move lines 2 and 3
of the code to the bottom the script oes work, but this does break
backward compatibility.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$new_obj = new new_class;
$new_obj->hello ();
class new_class
{
function hello ()
{
echo "Hello";
}
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Hello
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Class 'new_class' not found in
/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/scripts/class_test.php on line 2
