Description:
------------
The documentation on get_class() does not specify what happens when the
parameter is omitted. I assumed the parameter defaults to $this, but
this is not the case.
Note that this may also be a bug in the implementation instead of the
documentation.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class A {
function a() {
echo get_class();
echo get_class($this);
}
}
class B extends A { }
$b = new B();
$b->a();
?>
Actual result:
--------------
get_class() in A will return A, where get_class($this) will return B.
