What's alternative of eval function?

Question

I use eval() in my current project like this:

if (class_exists($class_name)) //$class_name depends on user input
    eval($class_name.\'::MyStat         


        

Answer 1

I'd suggest call_user_func.

An alternative to call_user_func() would be calling it like this:

$class_and_method = 'Class::MyStaticMethod()';
$class_and_method();
