PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related
Bug description: method_exists doesn't work on "self"
Description:
------------
method_exists doesn't work if you pass in a callback with a reference to
"self". Yet call_user_func *does* work if you pass in a callback with a
reference to "self". This is inconsistent and probably not intentional.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Test
{
public static function check_method()
{
var_dump(method_exists('self', 'output'));
}
public static function run_method()
{
call_user_func(array('self', 'output'));
}
public static function output()
{
echo 'this works';
}
}
Test::check_method();
Test::run_method();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
bool(true)
this works
Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
this works
