 New Comment:

There was an issue related to this question times ago. See bug #37632

Which has a test (Zend/tests/bug37632.phpt) checking exactly what you
are reporting as a bug. The fix for this issue is simple, but I don't
know really if this is the expected behavior or not.

<?php

class A {

        protected function f() {

        }

}



class B extends A {

        static function test() {

                $c = new C;

                $c->f();

        }

}



class C extends A {

        protected function f() {

                echo "OK\n";

        }

}



B::test();

?>



This should output OK which it really does.

"This is true for all methods except __construct()."

Can you provide an test case for non __construct method? I cannot
reproduce it.

Description:
------------
Protected visibility allows accessing parent members and also members of
parent's children. If class A defines protected method f() and classes B
and C are children of A then B can call C::f(). This is true for all
methods except __construct().

Test script:
---------------
class A {

        protected function __construct() {

        }

}



class B extends A {

        static function test() {

                new C;

        }

}



class C extends A {

        protected function __construct() {

                echo "OK\n";

        }

}



B::test();



Expected result:
----------------
OK

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Call to protected C::__construct() from context 'B' on line
9
