PHP: Array to variable function parameter values

Question

I have a variable length array that I need to transpose into a list of parameters for a function.

I hope there is a neat way of doing this - but I cannot see how.

You could use eval:

  eval("$func_name(" . implode($params, ",") . ");");

Though you might need to do some lambda trickery to get your parameters quoted and/or escaped:

  $quoted_escaped_params = array_map(create_function('$a', 'return "\"". str_replace("\"",` "\\\"", $a) . "\""'), $params);
