note 106140 added to language.oop5.abstract

This may be irrelevant to you, but I just had an idea about ‘abstract’ classes and the ‘final’ keyword. If you declare a class as abstract and the constructor of that class as final, then the extending class will not work: <?php abstract class newClass{ final public function __construct(){ echo 'You failed xD'; } } class MyClass extends newClass{ public function __construct(){ echo 'Will this work?'; } public static function myFunc(){ echo 'FooBar'; } } $init = new MyClass(); $init::myFunc(); ?> And that will return : Fatal error: Cannot override final method newClass::__construct() in C:\wamp\Projects\BMPortal\public_html\newPHPClass.php on line 16 ---- Server IP: 87.124.126.108 Probable Submitter: 93.97.240.97 (proxied: 93.97.240.97) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.abstract.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/106140 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106140 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/106140 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
