According to the CHM manual:
"Sometimes it is useful to refer to functions and variables in base classes
or to refer to functions in classes that have not yet any instances.:
Using parent::foo() works fine but I am having problems getting the variable
part of this to work.
For Example:
class A {
var $b
A() {
$b = "something";
}
}
class B extends A {
B() {
echo parent::$b // this is the problem
}
}
Is there not a way to refer directly to the parent properties? Or do i have
to setup a get function for every parent var that I want to access.
Thanks
