Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-31 22:54:52] kkauper at yahoo-inc dot com jani@ -- I'm not sure I understand your comment. I've already mentioned bug 42937 in my problem description. This problem may be related, but is not identical. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-31 07:23:29] jani@php.net See also bug #42937 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-27 03:29:40] kkauper at yahoo-inc dot com Description: ------------ If parent::<method-name> (NOTE: this is *not* a static invocation) is called in a child class, and <method-name> does not exist in the parent, the parent's __call() magic method is provided the method name (the $name argument) in lower case. See the code provided to reproduce the problem. The $b->getFoo(); call should output the method name as "getFoo", including the upercase "F" character. Instead, the method name is converted to all lower case. To be consistent with the results of $a->getFoo();, the method name should not be converted to lower case. This issue is probably related to the recently resolved bug # 42937. Reproduce code: --------------- class A { function __call($name, $args) { echo("magic method called: $name\n"); } } class B extends A { function getFoo() { parent::getFoo(); } } $a = new A(); $a->getFoo(); $b = new B(); $b->getFoo(); Expected result: ---------------- magic method called: getFoo magic method called: getFoo Actual result: -------------- magic method called: getFoo magic method called: getfoo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47801&edit=1
