Bug #32490 constructor of mysqli has wrong name
Submitted: 2005-03-29 21:55 UTC Modified: 2015-09-01 16:36 UTC
From: ladoo at gmx dot at Assigned: cmb (profile)
Status: Closed Package: MySQLi related
PHP Version: 7.0.0RC1 OS: *
Private report: No CVE-ID: None
 [2005-03-29 21:55 UTC] ladoo at gmx dot at
Description:
------------
Due to the PHP5 manual the constructor of a class shall be called __construct and the method named after the class is evaluated only for compatibility reasons. The constructor of the mysqli class is mysqli, but it should be __construct.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$x = new mysqli();
if(method_exists($x, "mysqli")) echo  "mysqli exists";
if(method_exists($x, "__construct")) echo "__construct exists";

Expected result:
----------------
__construct exists

Actual result:
--------------
mysqli exists

It seems to be arguable whether this is a bug in PHP 5, because
PHP 4 style constructors are fine there, but as of PHP 7 these
constructors are deprecated, so ::mysqli() should be renamed to
::__construct().
