I'm trying to call a static method for a namespaced class from another class with the same namespace. But the other class' name is contained in a variable :
<?php
namespace MyApp\Api;
use \Eloquent;
class Product extends Eloquent {
public static function find($id)
{
//....
}
public static function details($id)
{
$product = self::find($id);
if($product)
{
$type = $product->type; // 'Book'
$product = $type::find($product->id);
return $product;
}
}
}
Here is the Book class :
<?php
namespace MyApp\Api;
use \Eloquent;
class Book extends Eloquent {
public static function find($id)
{
//....
}
}
My type variable contains a valid class name here Book. This class is in the same folder, and uses the same namespace.
This code returns the error Class 'Book' not found.
I have tried several variations (from the SO questions I found) using backslashes, or the call_user_func function, but nothing worked.
Anyone knows what's wrong ?
