note 46421 added to language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim

Someone might come over the problem not to know the classname, he needs to make a static function call from: <?php class Foo { public static $bla = array('a','b'); public static function getBla() { return self::$bla; } } //~ works as desired print_r(Foo::getBla()); $classname = 'Foo'; //~ gives a parse error 'T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM' print_r($classname::getBla()); //~ not nice, but works print_r(eval("return $classname::getBla();")); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+46421 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+46421&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+46421&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
