I suggest "caller", Marcus thought about "class". 3) I COMPLETELY DISAGREE TO ADD RUNTIME DATA INTO zend_function/zend_op_array. We can try to store "caller_scope" in execute_data. Thanks. Dmitry. Rewrote the patch to use execute_data to store caller_scope. I have not renamed any functions or keywords (still using static::) as I did not see any consensus on that yet. Please review the implementation of caller_scope and I can take care of the naming issues when names are decided on. patch attached and also available at http://test.ft11.net/_mlively/late-static-binding.patch It would be nice if the patch in PAT could be changed to reference this new version if the appropriate people have time.
