When an anonymous function is declared statically, it prevents auto-binding to the instance it is in. Also, it can not be bound using the bind, bindTo & call functions. Test script: --------------- class Foo { public function bar() { return static function () { var_dump($this); }; } public function baz() { return function () { var_dump($this); }; } } $foo = new Foo(); $bar = $foo->bar(); $bar(); // Notice: Undefined variable: this // NULL $baz = $foo->baz(); $baz(); // object(Foo)#1 (0) { // } Closure::bind($bar, new StdClass()); $bar->bindTo(new StdClass()); $bar->call(new StdClass()); // Warning: Cannot bind an instance to a static closure ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71348&edit=1
