The section at http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim.php should contain also the example from http://php.net/language.oop5.basic#example-156 Test script: --------------- class A { public function foo() { var_dump($this->b); } } class B { public $b = 'stuff'; public function bar() { A::foo(); } } $b = new B(); $b->bar(); // will output string 'stuff' (length=5) Expected result: ---------------- error Actual result: -------------- string 'stuff' (length=5) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=60499&edit=1
