call public method after static method in php

Question

I have class sample and first call static method and return to call other public method:

class foo{ public static $var; public static function first() { self::$var = 1; return self::class; } public function second() { return self::$var; } }

and I need call public method after static method sample here:

foo::first()->second();

well you can't chain second method to a string. so it won't work. return the instance on the first, then chain second. like the answer below — Kevin

No, you can't do that, because from your static method you return just the string - class name. For calling your public method, you need that static method is returning an instance of your object, like this

return new self();
