forward_static_call_array - Call a static method and pass the arguments as array

SYNOPSIS

       mixed forward_static_call_array (callable  $function, array  $parameters)

DESCRIPTION

	Calls  a  user defined function or method given by the $function parameter. This function must be called within a method context, it can't
       be used outside a class. It uses the late static binding. All arguments of the forwarded method are passed as values, and as an array, sim-
       ilarly to call_user_func_array(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $function
		-  The	function  or method to be called. This parameter may be an array, with the name of the class, and the method, or a string,
		with a function name.

	      o $parameter
		- One parameter, gathering all the method parameter in one array.

	      Note

		      Note that the parameters for forward_static_call_array(3) are not passed by reference.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the function result, or FALSE on error.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      forward_static_call_array(3) example

	      <?php

	      class A
	      {
		  const NAME = 'A';
		  public static function test() {
		      $args = func_get_args();
		      echo static::NAME, " ".join(',', $args)." 
";
		  }
	      }

	      class B extends A
	      {
		  const NAME = 'B';

		  public static function test() {
		      echo self::NAME, "
";
		      forward_static_call_array(array('A', 'test'), array('more', 'args'));
		      forward_static_call_array( 'test', array('other', 'args'));
		  }
	      }

	      B::test('foo');

	      function test() {
		      $args = func_get_args();
		      echo "C ".join(',', $args)." 
";
		  }

	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      B
	      B more,args
	      C other,args
