Maybe it's just me, but could you explain which use-case want to solve? The
example isn't very useful, because you can achieve this quite easy without
reflection. Also why do you override the method, when you don't want it to
get called? Shouldn't they two separate methods then?
<?php
class First
{
public static function foo()
{
echo get_called_class();
}
}
class Second extends First
{
public static function foo()
{
echo "Do not call me, please";
}
public static function bar() {
parent::foo();
}
}
Second::bar();
