ID: 48899 Updated by: felipe@php.net Reported By: hm at mkjc dot net -Status: Open +Status: Assigned Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Windows Vista x64 PHP Version: 5.3.0 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: felipe Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-12 23:25:42] hm at mkjc dot net Description: ------------ is_callable returns "true" for methods that are not present in the parent class, but in the child class, even if you use the "parent" keyword. Earlier php versions correctly returned false, since the method is missing in the parent class. Perhaps it has something to do with the changes in conjunction with late static binding. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class ParentClass { } class ChildClass extends ParentClass { public function testIsCallable() { var_dump(is_callable(array($this, 'parent::testIsCallable'))); } } $child = new ChildClass(); $child->testIsCallable(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- bool(false) Actual result: -------------- bool(true) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48899&edit=1
