[PHP] Class Con- and Destructor Inheritance
Hello there. I was experimenting a bit with the constructors and
destructors, and found that this code:
?php
class First
{
public function __construct ()
{
echo Hello, World!\n;
}
public function __destruct ()
{
echo Goodbye, World!\n;
}
}
class Second extends First
{
}
$second = new Second;
?
Outputs
Hello, World!
Goodbye, World!
, yet the PHP manual
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.decon.php) says:
Note: Parent constructors are not called implicitly. In order
to run a parent constructor, a call to parent::__construct() is
required.
Is this an error in the manual or in PHP itself? Should I report it
somewhere?

No, this is not a bug. This means that if you define a new constructor
/ destructor, the parent class's won't be called unless you put it in
the new ones.
