I have been playing with PHP5 and am liking it more and more. But I have one
question about "instanceof"
If you have something like this:
<?
class A { }
class B extends A { }
$x = new B;
if ($x instanceof B) echo "B";
if ($x instanceof A) echo "A";
?>
This would echo "BA". That's good, I understand that.
Now the question: Is it possible to determine if B is an instance of A
without instantiating it?
Thanks
Martin
