Considerations for using static methods in PHP

This article mainly introduces several considerations for using static methods in PHP, and describes the PHP static method calling techniques and error points in the form of examples, for more information about PHP static methods, see the following examples. Share it with you for your reference. The specific method is as follows:

1. even if the methods in the class are not declared as static, but they do not use variable members of the changeable class, they can still be called using the external operator;

2. the value of $ this in the method called in static mode (with: operator) is determined by the context during the call! Instead of defining its class !!

For example, the following code:

<?php class TestClass1 {   public $normal_v = 'normal_v from TestClass1';   public static $STATIC_V = 'STATIC_V from TestClass1';   public function test_func1()   {     echo $this->normal_v.'
'.self::$STATIC_V;   } } class TestClass2 {   public $normal_v = 'normal_v from TestClass2';   public static $STATIC_V = 'STATIC_V from TestClass2';   public function test_func2()   {     TestClass1::test_func1();   } } $t2 = new TestClass2(); $t2->test_func2(); 

What is the output of this code? I thought it would be normal_v from TestClass1.
STATIC_V from TestClass1. the test shows that I am wrong. the correct output is:

Normal_v from TestClass2
STATIC_V from TestClass1

Note: Although test_func1 () is defined in TestClass1, it is called in TestClass2. the internal $ this variable is determined by TestClass2!

In fact, the relationship between these two classes should belong to "two-way Association ".
