Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-02-15 18:28:53] coolwust at gmail dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.get-called-class --- B::who(); should has the same result as call_user_func(array('B', 'parent::who')); But it's not. See the example below. Test script: --------------- <?php class A { public static function who() { var_dump(get_called_class()); } } class B extends A { public static function who() { parent::who(); } } B::who(); call_user_func(array('B', 'parent::who')); ?> Expected result: ---------------- string 'B' (length=1) string 'B' (length=1) Actual result: -------------- string 'B' (length=1) boolean false ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66719&edit=1
