We already support that in 5.4. You can do $foo = ['class', 'method']; $foo() and $foo = [$obj, 'method']; $foo(). I don't know why 'class::method' isn't supported, but I guess it's just a legacy syntax that was superseded by the array notation and as such not supported. Nikita
[PHP-DEV] Allow all callables to be called directly
My subject was misleading. I didn't mean to suggest call_user_func() be removed, just be made unnecessary by direct call syntax. This should make the inconsistency clearer: http://3v4l.org/L8Yvq On 3/15/13 10:21 AM, Sebastian Krebs wrote: You don't need to use it, if you don't like it. I do need to use in case my $callable is an object callback.
