If a method is declared as static, it raises an error. Upon removing the public static keywords from the interface, I get an error because the class implementing this interface has a different signature / declaraton from the interface, Thus meaning static members are a no-no with interfaces. This was tested on this morning's snapshot build of 5.1.0. I assume that this is a bug and not some daft change in behavoiour you want to push into the 5.1.x branch of PHP as it would break a lot of existing PHP5 code. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php interface Example { public static function sillyError(); } class ExampleImpl implements Example { public static function sillyError() { echo 'I am a silly error'; } } ExampleImpl::sillyError(); ?> Expected result: ---------------- I am a silly error Actual result: -------------- Fatal error: Access type for interface method Example::sillyError() must be omitted in /data/web/tools/iq_framework/test.php on line 4 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32427&edit=1
