Note Submitter: devis at lucato dot it ---- Regarding the previous comment on closures, in case you need it they can be made "callable" with a simple workaround class TestClass { public $testMethod; public function __construct() { $this->testMethod = function(){}; } function __call($name, $arguments) { // Note: Closure class is an implementation detail // so it might be removed or renamed in the future if (isset($this->$name) && $this->$name instanceof Closure) { return call_user_func_array($this->$name, $arguments); } } } $test = new TestClass(); var_dump(is_callable(array($test, 'testMethod'))); // false var_dump(is_callable($test->testMethod)); // true -- see http://lucato.it/php-anonymous-objects for use cases
