#26585 [NEW]: Right way to pass parameters to call_user_func_array

From: jsabater at linuxsilo dot net Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.3.3 PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: Right way to pass parameters to call_user_func_array Description: ------------ When calling a defined function like this: call_user_func_array ('myfunc', $myarray); The $myarray array only contains the first value, but not the whole array. For instance: function myfunc ($myarray) { if (is_array($myarray)) print("It's an array"); else print ("It's not an array"); } call_user_func_array ('myfunc', array ("first", "second", "third")); Then you would receive the message "It's not an array". If you print_r the array, then you would only get "first". Then, if you change the call to this: call_user_func_array ('myfunc', array (array ("first", "second", "third"))); It works as expected. So, the documentation available at http://es.php.net/manual/en/function.call-user-func-array.php seems to be wrong. Thanks for your time. Hope this helps. Reproduce code: --------------- function myfunc ($myarray) { if (is_array($myarray)) print("It's an array"); else print ("It's not an array"); } call_user_func_array ('myfunc', array ("first", "second", "third")); Expected result: ---------------- It's an array Actual result: -------------- It's not an array -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=26585&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=26585&r=float
