Call a function while setting class properties

Question

Is accessing functions while setting class properties possible in PHP (5.2 or 5.3) ?

class DAOClass {

   var $someProperty = SomeObject::staticMethod(\'read         


        

Answer 1

No. In the class declaration you define properties. You do not assign them anything. Everything after the = must be a literal constant. Method/function calls are expressions and cannot be used there.
