note 59785 added to function.get-class

davidc, that doesn't exactly work. As soon as you inherit everything breaks... <?php class Monkey { public static function getType(){ return __CLASS__; } } class Man extends Monkey { } ?> will return ''Monkey" if you call Man::getType(), which is not what we want. I really can't think of any possible workaround that is inheritable(i.d., not doing something like defining a class constant with the classes name in each class). If you want it to be fixed, good luck... http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=30423 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-class.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+59785 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+59785&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+59785&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
