Further to my previous note, the 'object' element of the array can be used to get the parent object. So changing the get_class_static() function to the following will make the code behave as expected:
<?php
function get_class_static() {
$bt = debug_backtrace();
if (isset($bt[1]['object']))
return get_class($bt[1]['object']);
else
return $bt[1]['class'];
}
?>
HOWEVER, it still fails when being called statically. Changing the last two lines of my previous example to
<?php
foo::printClassName();
bar::printClassName();
?>
...still gives the same problematic result in PHP5, but in this case the 'object' property is not set, so that technique is unavailable.
