PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related
Bug description: $var = "myClass::myMethod"; echo $var(); does generate Error
Description:
------------
i have defined a method in 'myClass' named 'myMethod' and it can be called
statically.
i cant use call_user_func() because i need to pass a variable by reference
and since call_user_func() is a function itself i cant get the variable
passed (if i add the "&" to the variable in call_user_func i get a
"calltime-pass-by-reference" error in php5, but it works for now)
tried with 4.3.8 and 5.0.3RC1
Reproduce code:
---------------
Generates Error:
<?
$meth = 'myMethod';
is_callable(array('myClass',$meth),null,$callname);
echo $callname($variable);
?>
Works:
<?
echo myClass::myMethod($variable);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
myClass::myMethod() should be called
Actual result:
--------------
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function myClass::myMethod() in XXX on
line XXX
