Raise a more intelligible error when trying to convert static method with name eqal to constructor

[danog]

When trying to convert a static method constructor, the parser throws an unintelligible error, Parse Error : syntax error, unexpected 'function Object() { [native code] }', expecting T_STRING on line n, a more specific error would be nice for JS newbies.

Example code that triggers the error:

<?php class a { public static function constructor() {} }

The same happens when trying to call a static function with name constructor

<?php anyClass::constructor();

Or when having a normal method with name constructor:

<?php class a { public function constructor() {} }

<?php $classinstance->constructor(); works though

Hi @danog,

Many thanks for the bug report. Need to dig a little, but for me this is due to the fact that the function name is used/indexed somewhere as a property over an object.

I can reproduce the same behavior on :

<?php class a { 
  public function __proto__() {} 
}

I'll work on it in few days, maybe will release it this week-end
