Sinse v5.3, you may even use the keyword static to reference child constants, static properties or
methods, instead of get_class($this).
<?php
class MyClass {
const MY_CONST = "yonder";
public function __construct() {
echo static::MY_CONST;
}
}
class ChildClass extends MyClass {
const MY_CONST = "bar";
}
$x = new ChildClass(); // prints 'bar'
$y = new MyClass(); // prints 'yonder'
?>
