Hello everyone,
I have a question about the `parent` keyword: is there any valid
situation where it can appear without the `::` operator following?
I am asking to fix a bug in php-mode[1] for GNU Emacs. Consider the
following code:
echo $parent;
echo parent::$foo;
echo $this->parent;
The mode incorrectly highlights `parent` in the final line as if it
were the keyword, but PHP itself treats it as a member of an object.
My idea for fixing this incorrect syntax highlighting is to only treat
`parent` as a keyword if the `::` operator follows it. But I want to
make sure that this assumption is correct.
Thanks in advanced for any help!
