Hm.. ok. My bad. Thanks for the extra info. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-03 01:38:51] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. in C::__construct, static resolves to C, and C::$counter is not defined per-se, a fallback occurs and B::$counter is incremented. Nothing to do with late static bindings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-03 01:31:17] m dot kurzyna at crystalpoint dot pl The snapshot used was php-5.3-2008-03-02-21:30. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-03 01:18:47] m dot kurzyna at crystalpoint dot pl Description: ------------ Late static binding doesn't seem to apply to static class variables. Example is rather self explanatory (construtor using static keyword should increment variable in calling class). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class B { static protected $counter = 0; public function __construct() { ++static::$counter; var_dump(static::$counter); } } class C extends B { public function __construct() { ++static::$counter; var_dump(static::$counter); } } new B; new C; ?> Expected result: ---------------- int(1) int(1) Actual result: -------------- int(1) int(2) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44315&edit=1
