forward_static_call_array
(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7)
forward_static_call_array — Call a static method and pass the arguments as array
Description
Calls a user defined function or method given by the function
parameter. This function must be called within a method context, it can't be
used outside a class.
It uses the late static
binding.
All arguments of the forwarded method are passed as values,
and as an array, similarly to call_user_func_array().
Parameters
function
The function or method to be called. This parameter may be an array, with the name of the class, and the method, or a string, with a function name.
parameter
One parameter, gathering all the method parameter in one array.
Note:
Note that the parameters for forward_static_call_array() are not passed by reference.
Return Values
Returns the function result, or FALSE
on error.
Examples
Example #1 forward_static_call_array() example
<?phpclass A{ const NAME = 'A'; public static function test() { $args = func_get_args(); echo static::NAME, " ".join(',', $args)." \n"; }}class B extends A{ const NAME = 'B'; public static function test() { echo self::NAME, "\n"; forward_static_call_array(array('A', 'test'), array('more', 'args')); forward_static_call_array( 'test', array('other', 'args')); }}B::test('foo');function test() { $args = func_get_args(); echo "C ".join(',', $args)." \n"; }?>
The above example will output:
B B more,args C other,args
