Method call on class-name variable on __construct

[Slamdunk]

namespace MyNamespace;

class MyClass
{
    public function __construct()
    {
        $thisClass = __CLASS__;
        $thisClass::myMethod();
    }

    public static function myMethod()
    {
    }
}

Output:

Catchable fatal error: Object of class PhpParser\Node\Expr\Variable could not be converted
to string in ./vendor/phpstan/phpstan/src/Rules/Classes/RequireParentConstructCallRule.php
on line 92

Good catch, I'll fix it.

I wanted to create a PR with solely a failing test, but didn't figure out the eligible path/configuration: any suggestion for the future?

[ondrejmirtes]

This is how I fixed it, including a test: 4c075f7

I don't know what you mean by path/configuration. To run tests, you just run vendor/bin/phing in the root dir.

I know how to run tests, I was looking for the right place to put it, and tests/PHPStan/Rules/Classes/data/call-to-parent-constructor.php is the answer.
Thanks for the bugfix 👍

You can discover the file (or even create a new test with a new file) by looking for a test for the rule that has the bug :)
