This feature is known as Variable functions, here is an example from php.net:
<?php
function foo() {
echo "In foo()<br />\n";
}
function bar($arg = '')
{
echo "In bar(); argument was '$arg'.<br />\n";
}
// This is a wrapper function around echo
function echoit($string)
{
echo $string;
}
$func = 'foo';
$func(); // This calls foo()
$func = 'bar';
$func('test'); // This calls bar()
$func = 'echoit';
$func('test'); // This calls echoit()
?>

You can use the variable as a function name. This will execute getList():
$str();
However, stuff like this is mostly a symptom of a design problem. Care to elaborate what you need this for?
