Operating system: GNU/Linux
PHP version: 4.3.8
PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related
Bug description: $this is caller inside class methods
Description:
------------
When a method is called outside any instance, I would expect $this not
being defined, however, if the method is called from another object, it
will point to the caller.
Is it intended ?
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Plop {
function coin(){
echo get_class($this);
}
}
class Foo {
function plop(){
Plop::coin();
}
}
$foo =& new Foo();
$foo->plop();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Nothing
Actual result:
--------------
foo
