Hello all, I'm playing around with 5.3, and I noticed the following interesting behavior:
class A { private static $cls = __CLASS__; public static function who() { print static::$cls; } } class B extends A { private static $cls = __CLASS__; } B::who(); // Fatal error: Cannot access private property B::$cls I understand why this is happening, but IMO, this should not be throwing an error. If "static" is supposed to be referencing the "called class", we need a way to access ALL of the variables of that class from its parent classes. Otherwise, there is no way to create static class variables that won't be inherited in a hierarchy. If there is, and I'm missing it, please forgive me and point it out.
