Bug description: property_exists called in parent class doesn work on private
property of subcla
Description:
------------
The property_exists function returns true on private properties if called
within a class. That doesn't work, if it is called in a function of a
parent class. If you overload the function in the childclass it works, but
this is actually not the idea behind OOP ;-)
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
class x {
private $x;
public function prop ($p) {
return property_exists($this,$p);
}
}
class y extends x {
private $y;
}
$x = new x;
echo 'prop(x): '.$x->prop('x').'<br>';
$y = new y;
echo 'prop(y): '.$y->prop('y').'<br>';
?>
Expected result:
----------------
you should see
prop(x): 1
prop(y): 1
Actual result:
--------------
prop(x): 1
prop(y):
