Indeed! I was actually quite surprised that this wasn't the way __CLASS__ resolved... I had to code it to believe it (and I didn't even do that until after you told us __CLASS__ didn't work!)



I would like to thank all of those that cared about my problem and tried to
find a solution by providing a wide variety of ideas. Thank you very much!!!



Do you think it would be wise to ask for help on php-dev?



I'll put money on that they say "won't do it" and then tell you to read the archives of php-internals as to why.


I originally hit this problem when I started to write a PHP5 based framework at the end of 2003. during the time since then I have watched/read quite a few threads on this subject.

my solution used call_user_func_array(), its relatively slow and a ****ing nightmare in terms of complexity.



I strongly suggest you brew a big pot of coffee and sit down for a few (lots??) hours to read thru what has been discussed on php-internals, you might start with:

http://www.zend.com/lists/php-dev/200307/msg00242.html

basically, AFAIKR, the final answer was something along the lines of - 'your misusing the static class concept' (don't hold me to that tho!)



Perhaps the way to go about this would be to make a "feature request" on bugs.php.net? It does seem like something that should be a part of the language.
