I would like to know how I can do this:

Class::methodA()->methodB()->methodC()...;

I have a View class (MVC) in which I pass parameters to create variables (assign). Currently it looks like this:

View::assign('var1', 'Variável 1');
View::assign('var2', 'Variável 2');
View::render('layout');

I would like it to look like this:

View::render('layout')->assign('var1', 'Variável 1')->assign('var2', 'Variável 2')

The assign method must return the class itself:

if the method is public:

public static function assign () { return $ this; }

If the method is public static:

public static function assign () { $ class = new Class (); return $ class; }
