Description:
------------
PHP doesn't allow static methods in interfaces to have a body.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
interface SomeInterface {
static public function doSomething() {
}
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
A blank page indicating non-failure :) Static methods in interfaces
definitely should be allowed to have a body. Maybe it's not a common
practise, but it's at times convenient.
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Interface function SomeInterface::doSomething() cannot
contain body in /var/www/html/workspace/test.php on line 4
