The test script below gives "E_STRICT: Declaration of melt\core\DateTime::createFromFormat() should be compatible with that of DateTime::createFromFormat()" even though it's declared exactly as documented. Also removing all the arguments what so ever doesn't make this problem go away so it's impossible to prototype DateTime::createFromFormat without getting this error. Test script: --------------- <?php namespace melt\core; class DateTime extends \DateTime { public static function createFromFormat($format, $time, DateTimeZone $timezone = null) { return new DateTime(parent::createFromFormat($format, $time, $timezone)); } } Expected result: ---------------- The class being declared as it should. Actual result: -------------- E_STRICT: Declaration of melt\core\DateTime::createFromFormat() should be compatible with that of DateTime::createFromFormat() ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55407&edit=1
