note 98012 added to function.call-user-method-array

Small, but necessary change: Remember: eval returns null, unless return is called within eval'd string. So check, that result is not false (bool). Hint: Using classes that gets functionality from external sources, i.e. SoapClient, which gets functions from wdsl, the method_exists -check in the beginning will fail. Maybe you want to add a parameter to the function to supress the check that method exists. <?php /** * @param string $func - method name * @param object $obj - object to call method on * @param boolean|array $params - array of parameters */ function call_object_method_array($func, $obj, $params=false){ if (!method_exists($obj,$func)){ // object doesn't have function, return null return (null); } // no params so just return function if (!$params){ return ($obj->$func()); } // build eval string to execute function with parameters $pstr=''; $p=0; foreach ($params as $param){ $pstr.=$p>0 ? ', ' : ''; $pstr.='$params['.$p.']'; $p++; } $evalstr='$retval=$obj->'.$func.'('.$pstr.');'; $evalok=eval($evalstr); // if eval worked ok, return value returned by function if ($evalok !== false){ return ($retval); } else { return (null); } return (null); } ?> ---- Server IP: 212.124.37.9 Probable Submitter: 213.209.121.3 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.call-user-method-array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98012 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98012 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98012 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
