Hi! I'm having some trouble with instance variables in my models combined with static functions. Basically what I would like to do is something like

class Model_Foo extends Orm\Model {

  private/protected/public static $foo = 42;

  public static function equal_to_foo($n)
  {
      return $n == Model_Foo::foo;
  }

}

However I cant call

Model_Foo::foo;

without getting an unknown class variable error. So I'm just wondering what the correct/preferred way of declaring/getting static instance variables in a model

That's a pretty basic mistake, check out http://nl2.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.static.php

Yeah, ofc. I forgot the $ infront of the variable name, a classic mistake...
