Re: Re: undefined class constant (function)

Thank you for the reply: While I was waiting I came up with the following as a solution: $_proc = []; $_proc['sync'] = function($_a){return self::listSync($_a);}; $_proc['async'] = function($_a){return self::listAsync($_a);}; $_out = $_proc[$_type]($_fileLst); return $_out; which I have working. But I will take a look at your reference. I was thinking of call() or apply() but I really don't understand those functions. I look at documentation and think I understand them, but when I see them in use I mostly don't. JK > On Mar 20, 2018, at 3:18 PM, Christoph M.
