In my opinion this should not be done on autoloading time, but as a own method inside the class for two reasons. 1. Not every class is loaded with autoload-functions, but although directly with include_once or required_once functions 2. The initialization of needed things inside the class should be in the domain of the class itself and not of someone outside. Thats why I proposed to make it a private magic method not a public one. To do by autoload or by calling it inside the included file after class-definition like class B { ... } B::__static(); would require to make it public and means to give the responsibility to do the necessary initialization to someone else. > > Marco Pivetta > > http://twitter.com/Ocramius > > http://ocramius.github.com/ > Regards, -- DerOetzi
