New Comment:
you are correct in your statement about breaking the reference, the
following
example works as i believe should be default.
<?php
class old {
static $prop = 'old';
public function __construct() {
static::$prop = &$this;
// ^^^ daft assignment of any random reference to cause it
// to break itself. normal assignment will not do it has to
// be a reference. comment out that line and instead of
// "old one two" you will get "two two two"
static::$prop = get_class($this);
// ^^^ an actual assignment that i care about keeping.
return;
}
}
class one extends old { }
class two extends old { }
$one = new one;
$two = new two;
printf("value: %s %s %s\n",old::$prop,one::$prop,two::$prop);
?>
nice and jenky.

Expected behavior. LSB applies to properties, but in PHP it was decided
to have static properties shared between classes and their subclasses
(via a reference set), possibly so that they can reliably be used in a
non-static contexts. This behavior can be changed by redeclaring the
property or manually breaking the reference set (possibly this ought to
be documented).

Description:
------------
Should late static binding also apply to properties? My test here I
would have
expected each result to be different, not the value of the last created
object. It
is counter-intuitive to work on methods and not properties. I would
expect this
behaviour with self:: but not static::
inb4 "we rejected this multiple times" i do not actually care about the
object
class name like in my example, that was just an easy demo case.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
// [bob@cairne:test]$ php static.php
// value: two two two
class old {
static $prop = 'old';
public function __construct() { static::$prop = get_class($this); }
}
class one extends old { }
class two extends old { }
$one = new one;
$two = new two;
printf("value: %s %s %s\n",old::$prop,one::$prop,two::$prop);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
value: old one two
Actual result:
--------------
value: two two two
