note 123716 added to function.is-callable

The story about __call() is a bit more complicated unfortunately. It will always return true ONLY if you pass an instance of a class, not if you pass the class name itself: <?php class MyClass { public function method() { } public function __call($name, $arguments) { } } is_callable([MyClass::class, 'method']); // true is_callable([new MyClass(), 'method']); // true is_callable([MyClass::class, 'other']); // false!!! is_callable([new MyClass(), 'other'])); // true ---- Server IP: 208.43.231.9 Probable Submitter: 185.85.3.142 (proxied: 85.195.255.242) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.is-callable.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/123716 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123716 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/123716 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
