note 21529 added to function.preg-replace

But what if you want to call a method of the current class through the /e option? $whatever=preg_replace( $pattern,"$this->cb_substitute('\\1')", $value ); ... does not seem to work. I think this is because the PHP snippet in brackets is executed outside of the context of the class. The only functions that can appear between those brackets are built-ins or global functions. The only workaround I can think of is building an external global function that in-turn calls back a method of the original object... there has to be a better way.
