ID: 28674 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: nlhowell at cableone dot net -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Class/Object related Operating System: WinXP Pro 2600 SP1 PHP Version: 5CVS-2004-06-07 (dev) New Comment:
In order to use 'parent' the calling class must be extended from a class, and have the method defined. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-06-07 16:18:01] nlhowell at cableone dot net Description: ------------ If you use call_user_func(array("parent", "somefunc")), an error is triggered: call_user_func(parent::x) [function.call-user-func.html]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback However, doing this with 'self' instead of 'parent' works fine, and behaves as expected. This may be a recurrence of Bug #26543, in which neither 'parent' nor 'self' could be used in call_user_func, so you might want to take a look at that. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class P { function __construct() { $args = func_get_args(); print_r($args); } } class D { function __construct() { $args = func_get_args(); call_user_func_array(array("parent", "__construct")); } } class C { function __construct() { $args = func_get_args(); call_user_func_array(array("self", "func"), $args); } function func() { $args = func_get_args(); print_r($args); } } $c = new C(1,2,3,4); // behaves as expected $d = new D(1,2,3,4); // doesn't behave as expected ?> Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 ) Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 ) Actual result: -------------- Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 ) Warning: call_user_func(parent::x) [function.call-user-func.html]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\test.php5 on line 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=28674&edit=1
