Yes, but I want to ignore Parent behaviour, and Re-inherit GrandParent behaviour.. Evert Jasper Bryant-Greene wrote: adding parent::__construct() in the constructors of both Parent and Child should do what you want. Jasper Evert | Rooftop wrote:

Hi List, Sorry if this is the wrong list for this kind of stuff.. I'd be happy to re-post this to the users mailing list. With the recent updates that will raise E_STRICT on static calls that are non static, how do we properly do the following.. I have a class named 'GrandParent' a class named 'Parent' and a class named 'Child' GrandParent has a constructor, Parent overrides it and Child does too.. What if I want to call GrandParent's constructor from the child? Most languages allow this through casting the class into the ancestor and call then call the method, but I can't do this with PHP, or can I ? The other solution (right now) would be GrandParent::__construct(), but this is not OOP anymore.. So it seems kind of weird that we get limited in functionality, for OOP-ness, but not adding the functionality to solve common design problems that we're raised by introducing this.. Will we get casting in the future? Evert
