I want to execute a string containing static function call
$string="ClassName::function()";
Let
ClassName=ABC & function=abc
so
$string="ABC::abc()";
the function abc returns a array
now what i want is
$array=$string;
It should execute $string and store the returned array into $array
You can use eval, but use this with extreme caution.
$string = 'Class::function();';
$array = eval($string);
$string?You can use such exotic construction to avoid using eval
class ABC {
static function abc_func() {
echo 'abc';
}
}
$string="ABC::abc_func()";
$i = preg_split('/::|\(\)/', $string);
$i[0]::{$i[1]}(); // abc echoed
Try this, call a static method directly by setting the class name is a variable :
$classname = 'ABC';
$array = $classname::abc();
