Hi list, in PHP4 it was possible to get the name of the calling class with debug_bcktrace(). Unfortunately this behaviour has been changed in PHP5. I didn't find a solution in the archives. Is there *any* way to get the name of the calling class?: class Car { function drive() { // I need the name of the calling class here // in this case it should be 'Porsche' } } class Porsche extends Car { } Porsche::drive(); Any help is greatly appreciated!
