Bug description: Special keyword 'self' inherited in child classes
Description:
------------
Special keyword 'self' represents the parent class instead of the child
class when it is used in an inherited method of the parent class.
Reproduce code:
---------------
class Foo {
const NAME = 'Foo';
static public function display() {
echo self::NAME;
}
static public function getInstance() {
$instance = new self;
return $instance;
}
}
class Child extends Foo {
const NAME = 'Child';
}
echo('Class constant: ');
Child::display();
echo('<BR>Object class: ');
echo(get_class(Child::getInstance()));
Expected result:
----------------
Class constant: Child
Object class: Child
Actual result:
--------------
Class constant: Foo
Object class: Foo
