ID: 50945 Comment by: phristen at yahoo dot com Reported by: robert at binalan dot com Summary: [PATCH] func_get_args(offset=0) Status: Open Type: Feature/Change Request Package: *General Issues Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 5.2.12 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Exactly, array_slice is what you wanna do. Which is why it would probably be best to add 2 optional parameters to func_get_args, and not just one. So it will behave exactly like array_slice. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-08-28 14:29:48] + at ni-po dot com @kwilson: Maybe this is a reason why he doesn't like to use array_shift: You already used it wrong! To make it work you would need to write: $data = func_get_args(); array_shift($data); array_shift($data); Better use array_slice: $data = array_slice(func_get_args(), 2); (This only works as of PHP 5.3, in PHP 5.2 you need to write: $data = func_get_args(); $data = array_slice($data, 2);.) I do support the introduction of this additional parameter. It is annoying to always array_shift / array_slice some stuff from the arguments ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-06 12:50:28] [email protected] The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: func-get-args-with-offset Revision: 1267876228 URL: http://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=50945&patch=func-get-args-with-offset&revision=1267876228&display=1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-02-16 21:30:46] kwilson at shuttlebox dot net Why wouldn't you just use array_shift? The PHP folks don't seem to like to implement features when there is already an approach to accomplish the task in few steps: function moduleNotify($module, $message/*, ...args*/) { $data = array_shift(array_shift(func_get_args())); switch($module){ case 'Database': list($host, $user, $pass, $base) = $data; break; case 'UserLogin': list($user, $pass, $iris, $lang) = $data; break; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-02-06 07:53:23] robert at binalan dot com Description: ------------ function moduleNotify($module, $message/*, ...args*/) { switch($module){ case 'Database': list($host, $user, $pass, $base) = func_get_args(2); break; case 'UserLogin': list($user, $pass, $iris, $lang) = func_get_args(2); break; } /* feature request: func_get_args(offset=0) returns arguments in same zero based array from a given offset in the argument list. */ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50945&edit=1
