#37152 [NEW]: __autoload is called with 'self'

From: buchner dot johannes at gmx dot at Operating system: Any PHP version: 5.1.2 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: __autoload is called with 'self' Description: ------------ autoloader shouldn't be called with the parameter 'self' or call_user_func(array('self','method')) shouldn't be working. Reproduce code: --------------- class A{ function A(){ call_user_func(array("self","f")); } function f(){ echo "A::f()<br/>"; } } function __autoload($class){ echo "autoloader: $class <br/>"; } $a = new A(); Expected result: ---------------- just: A::f() Actual result: -------------- autoloader: self A::f() autoloader is called with the argument self as classname. Of course, call_user_func(array($this,"f")); is a workaround. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37152&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37152&r=mysqlcfg
