Hello!

Is there a way to initialize a static class similar to ___construct() in php
?

Thanks,
Markus

When the constructor of the class is private, you could use a wrapper which
extends it:

class Foo {
private function __construct() {}
public function printMessage($msg) {
print $msg;
}
}

class FooBar extends Foo {
public function __construct() {}
}

$foobar = new FooBar;
$foobar->printMessage('hello');
