What are callbacks? I have created my callback system, and it is working
like that:



class Foo {

  function sum($a, $b) {

    return $a + $b;

  }

}

$staticCB = new Callback("Foo", "sum");

echo $staticCB->execute(array(5, 3)); // should result '8'

$myFoo = new Foo();

$instanceCB = new Callback($myFoo, "sum");

echo $instanceCB->execute(array(2, 4)); // should result '6'

function mySum($a, $b) { return $a + $b;}

$funcCB = new Callback(null, "mySum");

echo $funcCB->execute(array(1, 2)); // should result '3'



I want, you make possible to specify SCOPES, without dummy walkarounds
like strings or variables, so make this possible:



$staticCB = new Callback(Foo::sum);

$instanceCB = new Callback($myFoo->sum);

$funcCB = new Callback(mySum);
