Description:
------------
If I assign an instance of the Closure object as a property of an
object, I would expect to be able to execute that property as a
function.
E.g.
$o = new stdClass;
$o->test = function(){
echo "Executing function";
};
I would expect this to work:
$o->test();
However, it does not. This does:
call_user_func($o->test);
The $o->test() syntax is more concise and in keeping with other
languages with such features.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$o = new stdClass;
$o->test = function(){
echo "Executing function";
};
$o->test();
Expected result:
----------------
Executing function
Actual result:
--------------
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::test()
