Getting static property from a class with dynamic class name in PHP

Question

I have this:

• one string variable which holds the class name ($classname)
• one string variable with holds the property name ($propert

Answer 1

Even if for you said eval is out of the question, prior PHP 5.3 the easiest solution is still by using eval:

eval("\$propertyval = $classname::\$propertyname;");
echo $propertyval;
