I´ve found the example below which took my attention.
The call to cCat::Miew() assumes the cDog context and
is able to access $this of cDog.
Is this supposed to be a bug or something that was not
expected ?????
It happens to PHP4 to and php5. And looks a bit
strange...
class cCat {
function Miew(){
// cCat does not have a member "kind", but cDog
has, and we'll use it
echo "I am ".$this->kind.", and I say MIEW\n";
// here things are even stranger: does cCat class
// support WhoAmI function? guess again...
$this->WhoAmI();
}
}
class cDog {
public $kind = "DOG";
function Bark(){
// let's make this dog act like a cat:)
cCat::Miew();
}
function WhoAmI(){
echo "Yes, I'm really ".$this->kind."!";
}
}
$dog = new cDog();
echo $dog->Bark();
//outputs:
//I am DOG, and I say MIEW
//Yes, I'm really DOG!
