This is NOT BOGUS , had you bothered to read the results , you would see that var_dump , did indeed return the static member myvar( from class A ) . If returning static members with var_dump was not to be supported (that's what it sounds like) it should not show up in the first var_dump either !. In Addition ... using echo parent::$myvar; or echo $this->myvar within class B , also returns nothing . So this bug is perfectly valid . Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-11-01 11:51:48] [EMAIL PROTECTED] var_dump() doesn't show static members. And don't reopen this report - check your code ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-11-01 04:53:01] keith dot ward at gmail dot com Description: ------------ When using extend to extend a class . Static variables are not inherited . Reproduce code: --------------- class a { public static $myvar; public function __construct() { $this->myvar = '1'; echo ' Set myvar to 1 ... ' . "\n"; var_dump($this); } } $a = new a(); class b extends a { function __construct() { echo 'DUmping from class b' . "\n"; var_dump($this); } } $a = new b(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Set myvar to 1 ... object(a)#1 (1) { ["myvar"]=> string(1) "1" } Dumping from class b object(b)#2 (1) { ["myvar"]=> string(1) "1" } Actual result: -------------- Set myvar to 1 ... object(a)#1 (1) { ["myvar"]=> string(1) "1" } Dumping from class b object(b)#2 (0) { } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30642&edit=1
