#44315 [NEW]: Late static binding not working for variables

From: m dot kurzyna at crystalpoint dot pl Operating system: PLD Linux PHP version: 5.3CVS-2008-03-03 (snap) PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Late static binding not working for variables Description: ------------ Late static binding doesn't seem to apply to static class variables. Example is rather self explanatory (construtor using static keyword should increment variable in calling class). Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class B { static protected $counter = 0; public function __construct() { ++static::$counter; var_dump(static::$counter); } } class C extends B { public function __construct() { ++static::$counter; var_dump(static::$counter); } } new B; new C; ?> Expected result: ---------------- int(1) int(1) Actual result: -------------- int(1) int(2) -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44315&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44315&r=mysqlcfg
