#31214 [NEW]: overloading using __call() initially OK, fails on any subsequent method call

From: ebypdx at comcast dot net Operating system: Solaris 5.8 PHP version: 4.3.10 PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related Bug description: overloading using __call() initially OK, fails on any subsequent method call Description: ------------ in the most simple case, create a class with no methods except __call() and overload it. start calling methods on an instance of that class. the first method call will hit __call() and finish correctly. any subsequent method calls will fail to hit __call(), resulting instead in a fatal error. if this is indeed a bug... i realize due to the experimental nature of overloading in 4.3, that this may never work again. my deepest thanks to anybody who can address this. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php class BaseOverloader { function BaseOverloader() {} function __call($method, $args, &$returnValue) { echo "Call to ".get_class($this)."->$method <br/>"; $returnValue = "return"; return true; } } overload("BaseOverloader"); $c = new BaseOverloader(); $c->firstCall(); $c->secondCall(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Call to BaseOverloader->firstcall Call to BaseOverloader->secondcall Actual result: -------------- Call to baseoverloader->firstcall Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /export/vol01/opt/web/neby/partner.newedgenetworks.com/overloaded.php on line 13 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=31214&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=31214&r=mysqlcfg
