PHP 忒聊 綴豖 ヶ輛 create_function (PHP 4 = 4.0.1) Description Creates an anonymous function from the parameters passed, and returns a unique name for it. Usually the args will be passed as a single quote delimited string, and this is also recommended for the code. The reason for using single quoted strings, is to protect the variable names from parsing, otherwise, if you use double quotes there will be a need to escape the variable names, e.g. \$avar. You can use this function, to (for example) create a function from information gathered at run time: 瞰赽 1. Creating an anonymous function with create_function() $newfunc = create_function('$a,$b','return "ln($a) + ln($b) = ".log($a * $b);'); echo "New anonymous function: $newfunc\n"; echo $newfunc(2,M_E)."\n"; // outputs // New anonymous function: lambda_1 // ln(2) + ln(2.718281828459) = 1.6931471805599 瞰赽 2. Making a general processing function with create_function() function process($var1, $var2, $farr) {for ($f=0; $f count($farr); $f++) echo $farr[$f]($var1,$var2)."\n";} // create a bunch of math functions $f1 = 'if ($a =0) {return "b*a^2 = ".$b*sqrt($a);} else {return false;}'; $f2 = "return \"min(b^2+a, a^2,b) = \".min(\$a*\$a+\$b,\$b*\$b+\$a);"; $f3 = 'if ($a 0 $b != 0) {return "ln(a)/b = ".log($a)/$b;} else {return false; }'; $farr = array( create_function('$x,$y', 'return "some trig: ".(sin($x) + $x*cos($y));'), create_function('$x,$y', 'return "a hypotenuse: ".sqrt($x*$x + $y*$y);'), create_function('$a,$b', $f1), create_function('$a,$b', $f2), create_function('$a,$b', $f3)); echo "\nUsing the first array of anonymous functions\n"; echo "parameters: 2.3445, M_PI\n"; process(2.3445, M_PI, $farr); // now make a bunch of string processing functions $garr = array( create_function('$b,$a','if (strncmp($a,$b,3) == 0) return "** \"$a\" '. 'and \"$b\"\n** Look the same to me! (looking at the first 3 chars)";'), create_function('$a,$b','; return "CRCs: ".crc32($a).", ".crc32(b);'), create_function('$a,$b','; return "similar(a,b) = ".similar_text($a,$b, $p)."($p%)";')); echo "\nUsing the second array of anonymous functions\n"; process("Twas brilling and the slithy toves", "Twas the night", $garr); Using the first array of anonymous functions parameters: 2.3445, M_PI some trig: -1.6291725057799 a hypotenuse: 3.9199852871011 b*a^2 = 4.8103313314525 min(b^2+a, a^2,b) = 8.6382729035898 ln(a/b) = 0.27122299212594 Using the second array of anonymous functions ** "Twas the night" and "Twas brilling and the slithy toves" ** Look the same to me! (looking at the first 3 chars) CRCs: -725381282, 1908338681 similar(a,b) = 11(45.833333333333%) 瞰赽 3. Using anonymous functions as callback functions $av = array("the ","a ","that ","this "); array_walk($av, create_function(' $v,$k','$v = $v."mango";')); print_r($av); // for PHP 3 use var_dump() // outputs: // Array // (// [0] = the mango // [1] = a mango // [2] = that mango // [3] = this mango //) // an array of strings ordered from shorter to longer $sv = array("small","larger","a big string","it is a string thing"); print_r($sv); // outputs: // Array // (// [0] = small // [1] = larger // [2] = a big string // [3] = it is a string thing //) // sort it from longer to shorter usort($sv, create_function('$a,$b','return strlen($b) - strlen($a);')); print_r($sv); // outputs: // Array // (// [0] = it is a string thing // [1] = a big string // [2] = larger // [3] = small //) 綴豖 れ萸 ヶ輛 call_user_func 奻珨撰 func_get_arg
