If you are able to provide the information that was originally requested, please do so and change the status of the bug back to "Open". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-08 10:47:45] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip I can not reproduce this with PHP 4.3.0-dev.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-06 00:31:51] The Anarcat <anarcat at anarcat dot ath dot cx> Also note that morphing the code into: function seek_and_destroy($where_ary) { if (!isset($this)) { $foo = new ecdGroupedNews(); } else { $foo = $this; } supressees the warning, of course, so it is a proper workaround, for me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-12-06 00:29:12] anarcat at anarcat dot ath dot cx I have had a similar situation when assigning to $this: function seek_and_destroy($where_ary) { if (!isset($this)) { $this = new ecdGroupedNews(); // this is the line where the warning is pointing to } ... } this yields: Warning: Problem with method call - please report this bug in /usr/home/anarcat/data/web_pages/www/anarcat.ath.cx/php/ecdGroupedNews.inc.php on line 44 well, it's not *exactly* the same thing, but there is a similarity: both problems occur when referencing $this in shadowy conditions (ie. unset($this)). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-09-14 00:20:42] fclever at verinform dot com I get the following error message: Warning: Problem with method call - please report this bug in line xyz. This error message comes from /Zend/zend_execute.c, line 1638. This error occurs in our applications framework with many intermingled classes on both Linux and Windows 2000 Boxes (I have not checked on Solaris yet). I have not been able to produce a simple set of classes producing this error. The basic structure of what our code is doing is: class CUi { function httpHeader($p_disableGzHandler = false) { } function htmlHead($p_subDirs = false) { if ( ! isset($this) ) { // this is the static pseudo initialization $this->m_subDirs = $p_subDirs; } CUi::httpHeader(); // this is the line where the error occurs } } CUi::httpHeader(); If I move the CUi:httpHeader() call done from within htmlHead() above "if (! isset($this) )" the error does not occur. I am sorry to not be able to provide better information. I would not have reported this bug, but it explicitly asks to report it, so here we go. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19399&edit=1
