I was kinda thinking about all that too, for a project I'm currently
doing, in that I wanted to be able to create a singleton, without
having to put the singleton code in each class. The only hack I could
think of was to use debug_backtrace() to get the line of source that
contained the call, and parse(reparse) it manually.
Bare in mind that this is EXTREMELY UGLY, and probably extremely slow,
and unprofessional, but as a wise man once said(Andrew Morton IIRC),
if there is no implemention there is nothing to improve on, but if you
provide a crappy solution, you can rally people to improve on it.
If you're new to PHP, or prone to picking up bad habits, stop reading now.
eg
<?pseudo_code
class Base {
function static_get_class_name(){
list($file, $line, $method) =
get_calling_file_and_line_and_method_from_debug_backtrace();
$codeline = file($file)[$line];
preg_match("/([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*)::$method_name/", $codeline, $match);
return $match[1];
}
}
