It won't be supported but you can use eval() if you really need to. Andi

Will it be supported ?

Sorry, I didn't choose the right way to explain. :)
I meant that call_user_func needs an instanciated object which I can't
provide as what I really want to do is use a method from a class, not from
an instanciated object. (not sure it's clearer ?)
And keep an access to $this from inside the object calling the external
method because my parsing is actually recursive.
For an example of my current code, you can have a look at Container.php in
the Config package of PEAR (in CVS only). I am having hard time to figure
out what would be the best way to implement this in PHP.
