Add method in an std object in php

Question

Is it possible to add a method/function in this way, like

$arr = array(
    \"nid\"=> 20,
    \"title\" => \"Something\",
    \"value\" => \"Somethi         


        

Answer 1

Another solution would be to create an anonymous class and proxy the call via the magic function __call, with arrow functions you can even keep reference to context variables:

 new Class ((new ReflectionClass("MyClass"))->getProperty("myProperty")) {
            public function __construct(ReflectionProperty $ref)
            {
                $this->setAccessible = fn($o) => $ref->setAccessible($o);
                $this->isInitialized = fn($o) => $ref->isInitialized($o);
                $this->getValue = fn($o) => $ref->getValue($o);
            }

            public function __call($name, $arguments)
            {
                $fn = $this->$name;
                return $fn(...$arguments);
            }

    }
