Calling Controllers Functions with function name in a php variable

[eluser]ReSTe[/eluser]
Hi all...

I've a problem:

i have a variable named backpergest2 that contains the name of a function of my controller.
The idea is that i'm in a controller function and i've to call another controller function (backpergest2=name of controller function that i've to call)...

i've tried this code:

$this->$backpergest2;

but php shows me the following error:

Severity: Notice

Message: Undefined property: Tmfmagenta::$visualizzaprocspec()

Filename: controllers/tmfmagenta.php

Line Number: 18103


as u can see the name of the function that i've to call is visualizzaprocspec() and it is also the content of the variable $backpergest2.

what can i do?

thanks a lot, and greetings from italy

PS: the function visualizzaprocspec() exist in the controller.

I tried somthing similar as a test for you and it worked.. create a controller called test.php copy the code and give it a go!

Code:

<?php
class Test extends Controller {

  function Test()
  {
    parent::Controller();
  }
  function start($func='myname')
  {
    echo "hello";
    $this->$func();
  }
  function myname()
  {
    echo " gtech";
  }
}
?>

result

Code:

hello gtech

Or are you trying to do something different? you may just have a typo (typing error) somewhere.

yeah it works!!!

my error was in the content of the variable

bad variable: $var="visualizzaprocspec()"

right variable: $var="visualizzaprocspec"

stupid "()"
