Note Submitter: jc at jmccc dot com ---- In 5.3, $this cannot be used in an anonymous function, though you can simply assign $this to another variable and pass that into the function in the use section, This quick and dirty hack works for at least calling public functions and accessing public variables of the parent class. <?php class Example { public $blah; function foo() { $that = $this; $tmp = function() use ($that) { return $that->blah; } return $tmp; } } $test = new Example(); $example->blah = "whatever"; echo $example->foo(); // prints "whatever"
