I know this question sounds rather vague so I will make it more clear with an example:
$var = 'bar';
$bar = new {$var}Class('var for __construct()'); //$bar = new barClass('var for __construct()');
This is what I want to do. How would you do it? I could off course use eval() like this:
$var = 'bar';
eval('$bar = new '.$var.'Class(\'var for __construct()\');');
But I'd rather stay away from eval(). Is there any way to do this without eval()?
Put the classname into a variable first:
$classname=$var.'Class';
$bar=new $classname("xyz");
This is often the sort of thing you'll see wrapped up in a Factory pattern.
See Namespaces and dynamic language features for further details.
In my own findings, I think it's good to mention that you (as far as I can tell) must declare the full namespace path of a class.
MyClass.php
namespace com\company\lib;
class MyClass {
}
index.php
namespace com\company\lib;
//Works fine
$i = new MyClass();
$cname = 'MyClass';
//Errors
//$i = new $cname;
//Works fine
$cname = "com\\company\\lib\\".$cname;
$i = new $cname;
If you want to pass dynamic constructor parameters to the class, you can use this code:
$reflectionClass = new ReflectionClass($className);
$module = $reflectionClass->newInstanceArgs($arrayOfConstructorParameters);
More information on dynamic classes and parameters
As of PHP 5.6 you can simplify this even more by using Argument Unpacking :
// The "..." is part of the language and indicates an argument array to unpack.
$module = new $className(...$arrayOfConstructorParameters);
Thanks to DisgruntledGoat for pointing that out.
class Test {
public function yo() {
return 'yoes';
}
}
$var = 'Test';
$obj = new $var();
echo $obj->yo(); //yoes
I would recommend the call_user_func()
or call_user_func_array
php methods. You can check them out here ( call_user_func_array , call_user_func ).
example
class Foo {
static public function test() {
print "Hello world!\n";
}
}
call_user_func('Foo::test');//FOO is the class, test is the method both separated by ::
//or
call_user_func(array('Foo', 'test'));//alternatively you can pass the class and method as an array
If you have arguments you are passing to the method , then use the call_user_func_array()
function.
example.
class foo {
function bar($arg, $arg2) {
echo __METHOD__, " got $arg and $arg2\n";
}
}
// Call the $foo->bar() method with 2 arguments
call_user_func_array(array("foo", "bar"), array("three", "four"));
//or
//FOO is the class, bar is the method both separated by ::
call_user_func_array("foo::bar"), array("three", "four"));
