Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-07-17 19:43:29] mike@php.net It shouldn't even be possible to override a private/protected ctor with a public one. Can you please take a look at it Marcus? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-07-11 11:56:51] instance at o2 dot pl Description: ------------ Private __construct() can be called form inherited class constructor via parent::__construct(); I'm not sure, this was not reported, but I didn't found any this kind. Also in PHP version 5.2 this was occured (not by me). Thx. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class A{ private function __construct(){} } class B extends A{ public function __construct(){ parent::__construct(); } } $instance=new B(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Fatal error: Call to private method A::__construct() from context 'B' Actual result: -------------- no error - everything is fine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=38064&edit=1
