Hello folks.

An inherited and unimplemented method of a class in PHP-5.2.5 gets called
twice:

class Foo {
public function foo() {
echo get_class($this);//or __CLASS__;
}
}
class Bar extends Foo {
}
$f = new Bar;
$f->foo();

Shouldn't it be only once? If I'm doing something wrong, how would I
do it right? If it's a bug, did it get fixed as of 5.2.6RC5 ?


PHP supports two types of constructor. One is __construct(), the other is a
function with the same name as the class.
Oh, yeah, I've got so used with php 5 that I've completly forgot about
php 4 compatibility

In your example new Bar; will call foo as the constructor for the Foo
class, and then you call foo again explicitly.

Thanks.
