Is it right that 'self' in inherited method still points to the parent?
If it is, can you explain it? It makes me worry :)
A piece of code below for example
<?php
class MyParent {
const NAME = 'MyParent';
public function get_instance() {
return new self;
}
public function get_another_instance() {
$class_name = get_class($this);
return new $class_name;
}
public function get_name() {
return self::NAME;
}
}
class MyClass extends MyParent {
const NAME = 'MyClass';
}
$a = new MyClass;
$b = $a->get_instance();
$c = $a->get_another_instance();
echo $a->get_name(),"\n";
echo get_class($b),"\n";
echo get_class($c),"\n";
?>
