ID: 62393 Updated by: johan...@php.net Reported by: andre-desch at t-online dot de Summary: __callStatic from a derived class object context calls __call instead -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Bug Package: Reflection related Operating System: Windows 7 Prof. PHP Version: 5.4.4 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php This is due to the way calls to parent::foo() and such are handled, these look like static calls but in fact aren't.

Test script: --------------- <?php class MyBaseClass { public static function __callStatic($what, $args) { return 'static call'; } public function __call($what, $args) { return 'dynamic call'; } } class MyDerivedClass extends MyBaseClass { function someAction() { //here I call a base class' static function //it returns "dynamic call" instead of "static call" return MyBaseClass::Foo(); } } $bar = new MyDerivedClass(); echo $bar->someAction(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- static call Actual result: -------------- dynamic call ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62393&edit=1
