note 74045 added to function.func-get-args

Here is another variation on accepting a variable number of arguments. This allows for a variable number of arguments to be passed to a Class constructor, as well as a customized class version to be used dynamically. Syntax in code is: $mail = Generator("MailClassName", $db_ref); function Generator() { $numargs = func_num_args(); $classname = func_get_arg(0); $argstring=''; if ($numargs > 1) { $arg_list = func_get_args(); for ($x=1; $x<$numargs; $x++) { $argstring .= '$arg_list['.$x.']'; if ($x != $numargs-1) $argstring .= ','; } } if (class_exists("Custom{$classname}")) { $classname = "Custom{$classname}"; if ($argstring) return eval("return new $classname($argstring);"); return new $classname; } if ($argstring) return eval("return new $classname($argstring);"); return new $classname; } Hope this is of use to someone. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 69.88.107.94 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.func-get-args.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74045 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74045 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74045 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
