PHP: Fonctions variables

Fonctions variables

PHP supporte le concept de fonctions variables. Cela signifie que si le nom d'une variable est suivi de parenthèses, PHP recherchera une fonction de même nom et essaiera de l'exécuter. Cela peut servir, entre autres, pour faire des fonctions de rappel, des tables de fonctions...

Les fonctions variables ne peuvent pas fonctionner avec les éléments de langage comme les echo, print, unset(), isset(), empty(), include, require etc. Vous devez utiliser votre propre gestion de fonctions pour utiliser un de ces éléments de langage comme fonctions variables.

Exemple #1 Exemple de fonction variable

<?php
function foo() {
    echo "dans foo()<br />\n";
}

function bar($arg = '')
{
    echo "Dans bar(); l'argument était '$arg'.<br />\n";
}

// Ceci est une fonction détournée de echo
function echoit($string)
{
    echo $string;
}

$func = 'foo';
$func();        // Appel foo()

$func = 'bar';
$func('test');  // Appel bar()

$func = 'echoit';
$func('test');  // Appel echoit()
?>

Vous pouvez aussi appeler les méthodes d'un objet en utilisant le système des fonctions variables.

Exemple #2 Exemple de méthode variable

<?php
class Foo
{
    function Variable()
    {
        $name = 'Bar';
        $this->$name(); // Appelle la méthode Bar()
    }
    
    function Bar()
    {
        echo "C'est Bar";
    }
}

$foo = new Foo();
$funcname = "Variable";
$foo->$funcname();  // Appelle $foo->Variable()

?>

Lors de l'appel à des méthodes statiques, l'appel de fonction est meilleur que l'opérateur de propriété statique :

Exemple #3 Exemple de méthode variable avec des propriétés statiques

<?php
class Foo
{
    static $variable = 'static property';
    static function Variable()
    {
        echo 'Method Variable called';
    }
}

echo Foo::$variable; // Ceci affiche 'static property'. Il est nécessaire d'avoir une $variable dans le contexte.
$variable = "Variable";
Foo::$variable();  // Ceci appelle $foo->Variable(), lisant ainsi la $variable depuis le contexte.

?>

Exemple #4 callables complexe

<?php
class Foo
{
    static function bar()
    {
        echo "bar\n";
    }
    function baz()
    {
        echo "baz\n";
    }
}

$func = array("Foo", "bar");
$func(); // Affiche "bar"
$func = array(new Foo, "baz");
$func(); // Affiche "baz"
$func = "Foo::bar";
$func(); // Affiche "bar"

While the documentation suggests that the use of a constant is similar to the use of a variable, there is an exception regarding variable functions. You cannot use a constant as the function name to call a variable function.

const DEBUGME ='func';
function func($s) { echo $s. "\n"; }

DEBUGME('abc');  // results in a syntax error

$call = DEBUGME;
$call('abc');          // does the job

But you can use a constant as an argument to a function. Here's a simple workaround when you need to call a variable constant function: 

function dynamic($what, $with)
   {
     $what($with);
   }
dynamic(DEBUGME, 'abc'); 

This makes sense to me to hide API's and/or long (complicated) static calls.
Enjoy!

<?php
/*
You might have found yourself at this php variable functions page because, like me, you wanted to pass functions
around like objects to client objects as you can in JavaScript. The issue I ran into was although
I could call a function using a variable like this " $v(); "...I could not do it like this " $obj->p() " where
'p' is a property containing the name of the method to call. Did not want to save my property off to a variable prior
to making my call: " $v = $obj->p; $v(); "; even if one finds a way, the below applies...

I credit this expanded work to this person: tatarynowicz at gmail dot com;
without them I would not have gotten here.
