Calls a the method referred by method_name from the user defined obj object. An example of usage is below, where we define a class, instantiate an object and use call_user_method() to call indirectly its print_info method.
<?php class Country { var $NAME; var $TLD; function Country($name, $tld) { $this->NAME = $name; $this->TLD = $tld; } function print_info($prestr="") { echo $prestr."Country: ".$this->NAME."\n"; echo $prestr."Top Level Domain: ".$this->TLD."\n"; } } $cntry = new Country("Peru","pe"); echo "* Calling the object method directly\n"; $cntry->print_info(); echo "\n* Calling the same method indirectly\n"; call_user_method ("print_info", $cntry, "\t"); ?> |
