PHP 7.2 : how to check if in static mode

Question

Situation:

Class A{
    public function F(){
        var_dump($this);
    }
}

A::F();

When doing this I get PHP Fatal error:Uncaught Error: Using $this when not in object context.

Thx!

PHP allows calling non-static methods statically, but emits a warning. The real question is why are you calling this statically? — Devon Bessemer, Aug 31 '18 at 14:57

$this is not available in static calls, you need to use self:: but keep in mind these are not interchangeable equivalents.
