note 64599 added to function.func-get-args

I had a place where I needed a single way to call functions with any number of arguments and to come around the thing with default args I did like this. (This specific function was to retrive som stats). Then I could have a loop that looped all functions and was able to call them all based on a decided pattern (in this case they all started with startdate and enddate and then they could have any number of aditional args.) function statNewsWindow() { $old_error_report_level = error_reporting(0); // Arguments $startDate = (func_get_arg(0) != FALSE) ? func_get_arg(0) : DEFAULT_STARTDATE; $endDate = (func_get_arg(1) != FALSE) ? func_get_arg(1) : DEFAULT_ENDDATE; $partner = (func_get_arg(2) != FALSE) ? func_get_arg(2) : NULL; $user = (func_get_arg(3) != FALSE) ? func_get_arg(3) : NULL; $clicked = (func_get_arg(4) != FALSE) ? func_get_arg(4) : NULL; error_reporting($old_error_report_level); // get all users from tecknat_posts that $rc = GetSQLObjects("SELECT COUNT(*) AS num FROM statsys_newswindow WHERE date >= '$startDate' AND date <= '$endDate'" . ($partner != NULL ? " AND partnerId = $partner" : "") . ($user != NULL ? " AND userId = $user" : "") . ($clicked != NULL ? " AND clicked=1" : " clicked=0")); return (count($rc) == 1 && empty($rc[0]->region)? $rc[0]->num : $rc); } ---- Server IP: 193.27.201.10 (proxied: 193.27.201.10 1.0 www1.shellkonto.se:3128 (squid/2.5.STABLE4)) Probable Submitter: 81.225.190.59 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.func-get-args.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/64599 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/64599 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/64599 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
