Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63911&edit=1 ID: 63911 Comment by: keithdavis at solidtechservice dot com Reported by: bitluni at bitluni dot net Summary: Ignore conflicting trait methods originationg from identical sub traits Status: Verified Type: Bug Package: Class/Object related Operating System: debian PHP Version: 5.4.10 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I think the point here is that if I use the same trait twice because I use a trait that uses an already used trait, it's the SAME method included twice.

For me, this is the right behavior, the engine has no way of differenciating between B::a() and C::A() , you have to help it using 'insteadof' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-12-07 08:31:24] gaetaneislockedoutof at gmail dot com I have this issue. It makes me very sad :'( Windows 7 Home Premium Edition Service Pack 1, 64bit PHP 5.5.6 / Apache/2.4.7 (Win32) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-19 09:17:53] gron@php.net This is indeed a bug. Unfortunately, this case slipped and did not get tested. It is a perfectly valid usecase, and should not require the use of insteadof at all. Best regards Stefan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-09-15 17:23:42] heruan at aldu dot net insteadOf in this case is just a workaround, since there is nothing to 'use instead of' something else because here there is a property/method conflicting with its very self! And BTW insteadOf cannot be used as a workaround with properties. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
