How do I check in PHP that I'm in a static context (or not)?

Question

Is there any way I can check if a method is being called statically or on an instantiated object?

Answer 1

Try the following:

class Foo {
   function bar() {
      $static = !(isset($this) && get_class($this) == __CLASS__);
   }
}
