Description:
------------
I am trying to write a class which can be used statically e.g.
Db::connect(); Db::query() etc. I also have a __call() method to be
executed in case of calling an inexistent static method. But this does
not work: PHP says that the method is undefined.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Db {
...
function __call($method,$args) {
echo 'Method: '.$method.'<br />';
var_dump($args);
}
...
}
# this works fine
$Db = new Db();
$Db->test();
# this makes a PHP error
Db::test();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Method: test
Array()
Method: test
Array()
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Db::test() in ...
