I can't find anything in the PHP manual about this, but the new-ish E_STRICT error reporting will complain if an inherited class overrides a static method with a different call signature (usually a parameter list). Ironically, it seems to only be a problem of 'coding style' because the code works correctly and has done for quite a few versions. The exact error is "Strict Standards: Declaration of [child-class]::[method]() should be compatible with that of [parent-class]::[method]()". So if you must code with E_STRICT enabled, you need to rename the method name. Google shows that this is biting *a lot* of people. (Bugs have been filed, but there has been no response yet.) ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 203.26.177.2 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.static.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98646 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98646 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98646 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
