Re: Bug: Can't inherit abstract function

What do you expect to happen? BTW, I see an additional problem. You aren't supposed to be able to use access modifiers such as public/abstract in an interface definition. This is something we have to fix. It should be: interface Drawable { function draw(); }

I would be very grateful if you could explain the logic behind not being able to define public/protected/private/static access modifiers for interface methods (obviously they are abstract by definition). AFAICS (not that far I admit!) not being able to define public/protected/private/static for interface methods removes a lot of the power of interfaces (in terms of being able to define specifics) tia, jochem

Hi, the attached script produces: Fatal error: Can't inherit abstract function Drawable::draw() (previously declared abstract in Figure) in /usr/home/thekid/r.php on line 12 which is wrong because I am not inheriting anything but implementing an interface. The problem is that both zend_do_inheritance() *and* zend_do_implement_interface() use (merge_checker_func_t) do_inherit_method_check.
