Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-15 19:22:46] al dot james at gmail dot com Description: ------------ If I assign an instance of the Closure object as a property of an object, I would expect to be able to execute that property as a function. E.g. $o = new stdClass; $o->test = function(){ echo "Executing function"; }; I would expect this to work: $o->test(); However, it does not. This does: call_user_func($o->test); The $o->test() syntax is more concise and in keeping with other languages with such features. Reproduce code: --------------- $o = new stdClass; $o->test = function(){ echo "Executing function"; }; $o->test(); Expected result: ---------------- Executing function Actual result: -------------- PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::test() ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47665&edit=1
