Reproducible with the script above. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-12 20:06:23] phdaemon at gmail dot com I experienced this bug when building a new automation framework using PHPUnit + selenium. IT seems that PHPUnit uses reflection to instantiate a static function called suite which handles an array of browsers and duplicating a testcase to run in each one. I was on the latest ubuntu package: PHP 5.3.3-1ubuntu9.5 with Suhosin-Patch (cli) (built: May 3 2011 00:49:55) Copyright (c) 1997-2009 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies I got around it by switching the reflection to call_user_func but this should probably be fixed as PHPUnit is very popular. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-01-13 21:22:52] blue-tidus159 at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ When a static method is called through reflection, late static binding does not work. Probably because the getMethod() returns the method associated to the parent class. Test script: --------------- class A{ public static function call(){ static::callLate(); } public static abstract function callLate(); } class B{ public static function callLate(){ echo 'Late static binding'; } } B::call(); $class = new ReflectionClass('B'); $class->getMethod('call')->invoke(null); Expected result: ---------------- Late static binding Late static binding Actual result: -------------- Late static binding Cannot call abstract method B::callLate() ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53742&edit=1
