Hi, does anyone know a way of how to get the name of the class within a static function? I can't use __CLASS__ as my PHP version is 4.2.3 and I can't upgrade.
My code (simplified): class Base { function Factory() { $classname = ???; return new $classname; } } class Event extends Base { } // This should make $event an object of class Event $event = Event::Factory(); Of course I could pass the classname as a parameter to the factory method like: $event = Event::Factory('Event'); But I would like to have a more generic solution. Any hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Regards, Torsten Roehr -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
