ID: 63834 Comment by: tolan333 at gmail dot com Reported by: tolan333 at gmail dot com Summary: Add a function to detect a methods calling context Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Class/Object related Operating System: Any PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thanks for the comments. After rethinking about this, krakjoe's suggestions seems to be superior (solves the issue and is way easier). Is their any chance to see this improvement in 5.5 or 5.6? Or what needs to be done to get this implemented? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-12-31 12:02:45] krak...@php.net acquiring a backtrace is an inefficient means of obtaining this information ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-12-31 11:55:17] ni...@php.net I still fail to use just what exactly this asks for and how it would be beneficial. @krakjoe: The get_calling_method and get_calling_class functions you added should already be fully covered by debug_backtrace, so I see little value in adding them (as the use case is rather limited). @op: Regarding the last two PHP_CONTEXT_EXTERN constants, what do you mean by "user" and "core"? E.g. if you invoke a callback using call_user_func, is that an internal or a userland call? It's the internal function doing the call, but it's really the user who triggers it. I don't see how these constants would carry any meaning. The other two again can be covered by debug_backtrace, can't they? Just get the class of the call and check whether it equals __CLASS__ (=> private) or is a subclass of __CLASS__ (=> protected) or is none (=> public). Seems simple enough to me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-12-31 11:49:59] krak...@php.net The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: 63834-2.patch Revision: 1356954599 URL: https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=63834&patch=63834-2.patch&revision=1356954599 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-12-31 11:37:55] krak...@php.net -2 will provide get_calling_method and get_calling_class, I think that's everything you should need ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2012-12-31 11:36:48] krak...@php.net The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: 63834-2.patch Revision: 1356953808 URL: https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=63834&patch=63834-2.patch&revision=1356953808 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
