Hi,
In the static function "toHtml_table_heading" I want to use a static
array $fields, which has different content for each implementation (sub-class)
My first trial was to use self::$fields[] to access this array, but
this only sees the member of DBTable (the class where it is been used, not the inherited one).
My second trial was to pass the classnmae thru $classname and to access
the correct $fields with $classname::$fields, but that doesn't seem to work either.
// Parent class abstract class DBTable { static protected $fields = array(); static function toHtml_table_heading($classname) { $fields = $classname::$fields; // ^== syntax error, // unexpected // T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM (*)
//... } //... }
// Child class class DBImplementation extends DBTable { public function intializeClass() { self::$fields[] = new Object(1); self::$fields[] = new Object(2); } function __construct() { intializeClass() } }
Thankyou, André
