(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

get_called_classПолучает имя класса через позднее статическое связывание

Описание

get_called_class(): string

Функция получает имя класса, из которого вызвали статический метод.

Список параметров

У этой функции нет параметров.

Возвращаемые значения

Функция возвращает имя класса.

Ошибки

Если функцию get_called_class() вызывали не из класса, выбрасывается исключение Error. До версии PHP 8.0.0 функция выдавала ошибку уровня E_WARNING.

Список изменений

Версия Описание
8.0.0 Теперь вызов функции не из класса выбрасывает исключение Error. Раньше функция выдавала ошибку уровня E_WARNING и возвращала значение false.

Примеры

Пример #1 Пример использования функции get_called_class()

<?php

class foo
{
static public function
test()
{
var_dump(get_called_class());
}
}

class
bar extends foo {}

foo::test();
bar::test();

?>

Результат выполнения приведённого примера:

string(3) "foo"
string(3) "bar"

As of PHP 5.5 you can also use "static::class" to get the name of the called class.

<?php
class Bar {
public static function
test() {
var_dump(static::class);
}
}

class
Foo extends Bar {

}

Foo::test();
Bar::test();
?>

Output:

string(3) "Foo"
string(3) "Bar"

get_called_class() in closure-scopes:

<?PHP
ABSTRACT CLASS Base
{
protected static
$stub = ['baz'];

//final public function boot()
static public function boot()
{
print
__METHOD__.'-> '.get_called_class().PHP_EOL;

array_walk(static::$stub, function()
{
print
__METHOD__.'-> '.get_called_class().PHP_EOL;
});
}

public function
__construct()
{
self::boot();
print
__METHOD__.'-> '.get_called_class().PHP_EOL;

array_walk(static::$stub, function()
{
print
__METHOD__.'-> '.get_called_class().PHP_EOL;
});
}
}

CLASS
Sub EXTENDS Base
{
}

// static boot
Base::boot(); print PHP_EOL;
// Base::boot -> Base
// Base::{closure} -> Base

Sub::boot(); print PHP_EOL;
// Base::boot -> Sub
// Base::{closure} -> Base

new sub;
// Base::boot -> Sub
// Base::{closure} -> Base
// Base->__construct -> Sub
// Base->{closure} -> Sub

// instance boot
new sub;
// Base->boot -> Sub
// Base->{closure} -> Sub
// Base->__construct -> Sub
// Base->{closure} -> Sub

private function __construct() {

}

public static function getInstance() {
if (!self::$instance) {

namespace admin\test;

use root\Factor;

class Single extends Factor {

$index = new Index();
var_dump($index->get());

The result is:

SEE: http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.late-static-bindings.php

I think it is worth mentioning on this page, that many uses of the value returned by get_called_function() could be handled with the new use of the old keyword static, as in
<?php
static::$foo;
?>

versus
<?php
$that
=get_called_class();
$that::$foo;
?>

I had been using $that:: as my conventional replacement for self:: until my googling landed me the url above. I have replaced all uses of $that with static with success both as
<?php
static::$foo; //and...
new static();
?>

Since static:: is listed with the limitation: "Another difference is that static:: can only refer to static properties." one may still need to use a $that:: to call static functions; though I have not yet needed this semantic.

When calling dynamic method statically in php 5.6 (under 7) it allows it, but it doesnt work, it incorrectly evaluates class that called our subject class, therefore containing method must be static.

It is possible to write a completely self-contained Singleton base class in PHP 5.3 using get_called_class.

<?php

abstract class Singleton {

protected function
__construct() {
}

final public static function
getInstance() {
static
$aoInstance = array();

$calledClassName = get_called_class();

if (! isset (
$aoInstance[$calledClassName])) {
$aoInstance[$calledClassName] = new $calledClassName();
}

return
$aoInstance[$calledClassName];
}

final private function
__clone() {
}
}

class
DatabaseConnection extends Singleton {

protected
$connection;

protected function
__construct() {
// @todo Connect to the database
}

public function
__destruct() {
// @todo Drop the connection to the database
}
}

$oDbConn = new DatabaseConnection(); // Fatal error

$oDbConn = DatabaseConnection::getInstance(); // Returns single instance
?>

If you call a static getInstance() function to create a instance of a class from another class, this function have to be static, if it is not static the original name of the caller class and not of the current class get returned.

example:

<?php

class a {
function
getXName() {
return
x::getClassName();
}
function
getXStaticName() {
return
x::getStaticClassName();
}

}

class
b extends a {
}

class
x {
public function
getClassName() {
return
get_called_class();
}
public static function
getStaticClassName() {
return
get_called_class();
}
}

$a = new a();

$b = new b();

echo
$a->getXName(); // will return "a"
echo $b->getXName(); // will return "b"

echo $a->getXStaticName(); // will return "x"
echo $b->getXStaticName(); // will return "x"

Beware that this does not behave as expected if your method is not declared as static! For example:

<?php

class foo {
static public function
test() {
var_dump(get_called_class());
}

public function
testTwo() {
var_dump(get_called_class());
}
}

class
bar extends foo {
}

class
abc {
function
test() {
foo::test();
bar::test();
}

function
testTwo() {
foo::testTwo();
bar::testTwo();
}
}

echo
"basic\n";
foo::test();
bar::test();

echo
"basic without static declaration\n";
foo::testTwo();
bar::testTwo();

echo
"in a class\n";
$abc = new abc();
$abc->test();

echo
"in a class without static declaration\n";
$abc->testTwo();

?>

The result is:

basic
string 'foo'
string 'bar'

basic without static declaration
string 'foo'
string 'bar'

in a class
string 'foo'
string 'bar'

in a class without static declaration
string 'abc'
string 'abc'

Here's a simple way of getting the inheritance tree of a class, no matter which class the function was actually defined in. Will work as a static function method too.

<?php
class A {
public function
get_class_tree(){
$cur_class = get_called_class();
do {
echo
$cur_class;
}
while(
$cur_class = get_parent_class($cur_class));
}
}

class
B {

}

class
C {

}

$foo = new C();
$foo->get_class_tree();

?>
