From: Operating system: PHP version: 5.3.5 Package: Documentation problem Bug Type: Documentation Problem Bug description:call_user_func description is too general Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.call-user-func#Parameters --- The manual states that call_user_func(array($classname, $methname), ...) will call the static method of the class indicated by +classname+ but fails to mention that it does not work if the class is imported in a namespace. To avoid disappointed programmers, I think it should. Example: use X as Y; call_user_func(array('Y', 'f'), ...) will not work. This means that if the original class caused a nameconflict there is absolutely no way of calling it.
