PHP Bug Type:     Class/Object related
Bug description:  use of per class constants

Description:
------------
This bug is related to: Bug #27523

It is not possible to use a class constant, without a reference to its OWN
class!

see reproduce code:

Another problem is that the function returns the name of the constant
instead of it's value!

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

class Test {
  const TEMP = "hi";
	
  function printConst() {
    print "const Test::TEMP = " . Test::TEMP . "\n"; //works!
    print "const TEMP       = " . TEMP . "\n"; //produces notice
  }
}

$t = new Test();
$t -> printConst();

?>

Expected result:
----------------
The following output should be printed:

const Test::TEMP = hi
const TEMP       = hi

Actual result:
--------------
const Test::TEMP = hi
PHP Notice:  Use of undefined constant TEMP - assumed 'TEMP' in
C:\Temp\test.php on line 8
const TEMP       = TEMP
