Summary: Can't call undefined methods (using __call) on
parent
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Scripting Engine problem
Operating System: All
PHP Version: 5.3.3

I'm pretty sure everyone should be aware of this but I'll say it
nonetheless.
parent:: isn't necessarily a static call. When it's used within an
object context it should remain within an object context, but the
subsequent call to __callStatic seems to lose it.
I tried a workaround of testing for $this in __callStatic but it seems
to have gone missing.
Is there anything I can do to help this out? Write a more comprehensive
test case that can be checked into the suite?

The change was introduced as a fix for the bug #51176.

The difference introduced was that the __call() just will be called when
__callStatic() is not implemented, on such static method calls.

I ran into the same problem.
It's a serious breakage! I just tested on php 5.3.2 and it works as
expected!

Description:
------------
When using the __call and __callStatic functionality on a parent class
calls to parent::method() will always use __callStatic rather than the
__call.
This breaks backwards compatibility in a number of cases.
Test script:
---------------
class A {
function __call($method, $args) {
if($method == "Test") {
echo "Success.";
}
}
function __callStatic($method, $args) {
echo "Failure.";
}
}
class B extends A {
function Test() {
echo "Test called.";
parent::Test();
}
}
$test = new B;
$test->Test();
Expected result:
----------------
//Expected output: Test called.Success.
Actual result:
--------------
//Actual output: Test called.Failure
------------------------------------------------------------------------
