revision 1.136 date: 2004/10/31 15:30:53; author: helly; state: Exp; lines: +163 -1 - Add ReflectionFunction::invokeArgs(array) - Add ReflectionMethod::invokeArgs(obj, array) Why was this added? These: 1) call_user_func_array( array(new ReflectionMethod('class', 'method'), 'invoke', array(1, 2, 3) ) 2) call_user_func( array(new ReflectionMethod('class', 'method'), 'invoke', 1, 2, 3 ) work just fine. Do we really need to duplicate code where a solution already exists? - Timm

They work, but not seamless.

He forgot to support invokeArgs(NULL, array(...)) for static invocation ("Warning: invokeArgs() expects parameter 1 to be object, null given"). [...call_user_func* equivalents...]

Care to elaborate? Except for the call_user_func-syntax being longer I don't see any difference. - Timm

The difference is that with using a method of ReflectionFunction or ReflectionMethod I do not have to switch paradigms (Reflection API and OOP vs. call_user_func*() and non-OOP).
