Hi,

Does anyone know the correct syntax to interpolate a class variable, $x say, inside a string? I tried

"{self::$x}"

but it produces the string

{self::x}

Here it will produce '{self::}', and a notice $x isn't set.
AFAIK, with static variables, one has the same 'problem' as with constants: no interpolation possible,

If that is the case it was probably overlooked by the language developers. I see no reason why static variables could not be interpolated with the syntax above.

just use temporary variables or concatenation.

Right, but it is kind of clumsy.
