The double-colon operator, the scope-scoped operator, scope Resolution operator can access properties and methods overridden in static, const, and class.
Used outside of the class definition, called with the class name. In PHP 5.3.0, you can use variables instead of class names.
Program List: Accessing the class definition externally with a variable
<?phpclass Fruit { const Const_value = ' Fruit Color ';} $classname = ' Fruit '; Echo $classname:: Const_value; As of PHP 5.3.0echo fruit::const_value;? >
Program List: Used outside the class definition ::
<?phpclass Fruit { const Const_value = ' Fruit Color ';} Class Apple extends fruit{public static $color = ' Red '; public static function Doublecolon () { echo parent::const_value. "\ n"; echo Self:: $color. "\ n"; }} Apple::d Oublecolon ();? >
Program Run Result:
Fruit Color Red
Program List: Calling the parent method
<?phpclass fruit{ protected function Showcolor () { echo "fruit::showcolor () \ n"; }} Class Apple extends fruit{ //Override parent ' s definition public function Showcolor () { /* but still Call the parent function Parent::showcolor (); echo "Apple::showcolor () \ n"; }} $apple = new Apple (); $apple->showcolor ();? >
Program Run Result:
Fruit::showcolor () Apple::showcolor ()
Program List: Using scope qualifiers
<?php class Apple {public function Showcolor () { return $this->color; } } Class Banana {public $color; Public function __construct () { $this->color = ' Banana is yellow '; } Public Function GetColor () { return apple::showcolor (); } } $banana = new Banana; echo $banana->getcolor ();? >
Program Run Result:
Banana is yellow
Program List: Methods for calling base classes
<?phpclass fruit{ static function color () { return ' color '; } static function Showcolor () { echo ' show '. Self::color (); }} Class Apple extends fruit{ static function color () { return ' red '; }} Apple::showcolor ();//output is "Show Color"!? >
Program Run Result:
Show Color
