Pass args from one method to the next

[rtconner]

In python (I forget the exact syntax, its been a while)

 

You can write -

...

function foo(arg,*args, **kwargs) :

    bar (arg, *args, **kwargs);

...

And all of the variable pass to foo() will then be passed on to bar().

Is there a php equivalent? I've looked around and cannot find anything. I'm thinking something with func_get_args might work, but I can't pinpoint it.

 

Thank.

<?php
function foo($arg1, $arg2, $arg3) {
      bar($arg1, $arg2, $arg3);
}
?>

 

I think that might be what you want?

LoL. Not really.

 

In python I could call

 

foo('abc', 5, false, 6, name='joe', type='person', array(1,2,3));

 

And every single one of those parameters would be passed into bar. Its good for passing parameters to your parent classes constructor and then doing some of your own logic in the constructor also. You don't have to have any idea what the parameters are, you just pass them along (or you can use some of them)

Maybe that is what you are looking for?

Actually, you are close... I think I got it...

 

call_user_func('bar', func_get_args());

 

might work. I have yet to test this, but in concept it should do the job.
