__call

Hi!

I'm intrigued(spelling?) how this really works.
I have it set up like this:

In my DB object

PHP Code:


			
public function __call($function, $params)
    {
        
        if(is_object($this->DB_Helper))
        {
            
            return $this->DB_Helper->$function($params[0]);
            
        }
        
        TANAXIA_CORE::error('DB_Helper is not loaded. Check out database config file.');
        return false;
        
    }

And then my DB_helper objects' functions looks like this(for example):

PHP Code:


			
public function order_by($order, $how)
    {
        
        $this->order_by[$order] = $how;
        
        return $this;
        
    }

But if I call it like $db->order_by('test_cat', 'DESC')
that gets on ONE line, so when it calls the function the function will be:

$this->DB_Helper->order_by('test_cat, DESC');

Leaving the second option out.. how can I get it to actually set the two parameters(or even more parameters) ??

You could use call_user_func_array.

Thanks! You mean I should use that in the __call function?

PHP Code:


			
public function __call($function, $params)
{
// split the params so I get an array $array
call_user_func_array($this->DB_Helper->$function, $array);

Like that?
Is this the most efficiant/best way to do this?

PHP Code:


			

return call_user_func_array(array($this->DB_Helper,$function),$params);
