PHP Error when returning value into new array

Vote count:

-2

I want to build a new array using values returned from a static method from another class, like so:

class Foo {
    public static $vars = array(
        'foo' => Config::method('returns a string'), /* line where error occurs */
        'bar' => Config::anothermethod('another string')
    );
}

Now PHP throws this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '(', expecting ')' in file.php on line 22

The method simply returns a string, which I double checked. I even tried stringifying it with (string) Config::method('foo') , no success. Is this not possible?
