How to call non-static method from static method of same class?

Question

I am working on PHP code.

Here is the sample code to explain my problem:

class Foo {

    public function fun1() {
             echo \'non-static\';   
         


        

Answer 1

You must create a new object inside the static method to access non-static methods inside that class:

class Foo {

    public function fun1()
    {
        return 'non-static';
    }

    public static function fun2()
    {
        return (new self)->fun1();
    }
}

echo Foo::fun2();

The result would be non-static

Later edit: As seen an interest in passing variables to the constructor I will post an updated version of the class:

class Foo {

    private $foo;
    private $bar;

    public function __construct($foo, $bar)
    {
        $this->foo = $foo;
        $this->bar = $bar;
    }

    public function fun1()
    {
        return $this->foo . ' - ' . $this->bar;
    }

    public static function fun2($foo, $bar)
    {
        return (new self($foo, $bar))->fun1();
    }
}

echo Foo::fun2('foo', 'bar');

The result would be foo - bar
