I've incorporated use of the ability to call instance methods through
static calls, allowing for me to mimic multiple inheritance without
having to make edits to classes that are already working because of
the behavior of '$this' when instance methods are called statically.
As stated on in the basics section on classes and objects:
"$this is a reference to the calling object (usually the object to
which the method belongs, but can be another object, if the method is
called statically from the context of a secondary object)."
I've made great use of that functionality in my framework. However,
It sounds like this is going to cause a fatal error in PHP6. Is this
in fact true? And, if the behavior is going to change, can somebody
explain what the impetus for this change was?
Thank you very much for your time,
Adam
