Find out which class called a method in another class

Question

Is there a way in PHP to find out what object called what method in another object.

Exmaple:

class Foo
{
  public function __construct()
  {
    $bar         


        

Answer 1

At the very least, you could use debug_backtrace and analyze that to find the calling method.

I think you should also be able to do it using the reflection API, but it's been too long since I've used PHP and I don't remember exactly how. The links should at least get you started, however.
