PHP custom static method access

Question

I'm in PHP and I must access a Static method of an object which name must change.

   private $controlleur = null;
   private static $instance = null;

   private function __construct() {
     $nomControlleur = "Controlleurs\_" . Session::singleton()->controlleur;
     $this->controlleur = $nomControlleur::singleton();
   }

This preceding code is giving me " Syntax error unexpected :: ".
I've also tried writing {$nomControlleur}::singleton(); but it's giving me even more errors, thanks a lot for your help.

Use:

$this->controlleur = call_user_func(array($nomControlleur, 'singleton'));

or (5.2.3+ only)

$this->controlleur = call_user_func($nomControlleur . '::singleton');

$staticCall = $nonController."::singleton()";
$staticCall();

?

Thanks, nearly that, but I have find it with your comment. Just pull of the () in singleton() beacause when you call it it gives singleton()();

I think now in PHP 5.3 there is also PHP __callStatic() as there was __call().

So you can define __callStatic() and undefined static method call will hit this method.

Please check here for more details and usage.
