Note Submitter: olivier at m2mobi dot com ---- Extending abstract class with override of abstract method having additional parameters with default value works while its not documented: is it borderline? Example <?php <?php abstract class AbstractMother { public abstract function methodWithOneArg( $arg ); } class ConcreteChild extends AbstractMother { public function methodWithOneArg($arg, $arg2="I am the additional arg default value.") { echo $arg." ".$arg2 ; } } $child = new ConcreteChild() ; $child->methodWithOneArg( "I am the first arg.", "I am the additional arg.") ; echo "<br>" ; $child->methodWithOneArg("I am the first arg.") ; ?> Will output: I am the first arg. I am the additional arg. I am the first arg. I am the additional arg default value. no error is thrown
