[PHP-DEV] Traits and static variables

[Stefan Marr]

Hi:

Was just thinking about some details of the traits implementation.

From my perspective, static variables in methods should work like the method 
would have been actually implemented in the class using the traits. Thus, 
static variables should be independent for the different traits usages.

Any thoughts on that?

Below, I attached the relevant test case.

Best regards
Stefan

--TEST--
Statics work like expected for language-based copy'n'paste. No link between 
methods from the same trait.
--FILE--
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);

trait Counter {
  public function inc() {
    static $c = 0;
    $c = $c + 1;
    echo "$c\n";
  }
}


class C1 {
  use Counter;
}

class C2 {
  use Counter;
}

$o = new C1();
$o->inc();
$o->inc();

$p = new C2();
$p->inc();
$p->inc();

?>
--EXPECTF--
