ID: 21463 Updated by: gschlossnagle@php.net Reported By: hfuecks@phppatterns.com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Class/Object related Operating System: Windows NT 4 PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php In PHP function/method names are case-insensitive, so they all get auto-converted to lowercase. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-06 09:48:43] hfuecks@phppatterns.com Seems the magic __call() function used with the overload extension is converting the name of the function called (the first argument of __call()) to lowercase. Best summarized with a script; <?php class Test { function Test () { echo ('Test constructed<br />'); } function __call($method,$args) { echo ( 'Method called: '.$method.'<br />' ); switch ( $method ) { case 'testa': echo ('testa('.$args[0].') success<br />'); break; case 'TestB': echo ('TestB('.$args[0].') success<br />'); break; case 'TESTC': echo ('TESTC('.$args[0].') success<br />'); break; default: echo ('Method unknown<br />'); break; } } } overload('Test'); $o=new Test(); $o->testa(1); $o->TestA(2); $o->TESTA(3); $o->testb(1); $o->TestB(2); $o->TESTB(3); $o->testc(1); $o->TestC(2); $o->TESTC(3); ?> Output of above script; Test constructed Method called: testa testa(1) success Method called: testa testa(2) success Method called: testa testa(3) success Method called: testb Method unknown Method called: testb Method unknown Method called: testb Method unknown Method called: testc Method unknown Method called: testc Method unknown Method called: testc Method unknown ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21463&edit=1
