Description
Calls the callback given by the first parameter with
the parameters in param_arr.
Parameters

Changelog
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 5.3.0 |
The interpretation of object oriented keywords like parent
and self has changed. Previously, calling them using the
double colon syntax would emit an E_STRICT warning because
they were interpreted as static.

Examples
Example #1 call_user_func_array() example
<?php
function foobar($arg, $arg2) {
echo __FUNCTION__, " got $arg and $arg2\n";
}
class foo {
function bar($arg, $arg2) {
echo __METHOD__, " got $arg and $arg2\n";
}
}
// Call the foobar() function with 2 arguments
call_user_func_array("foobar", array("one", "two"));
// Call the $foo->bar() method with 2 arguments
$foo = new foo;
call_user_func_array(array($foo, "bar"), array("three", "four"));
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
foobar got one and two foo::bar got three and four
Example #2 call_user_func_array() using namespace name
<?php
namespace Foobar;
class Foo {
static public function test($name) {
print "Hello {$name}!\n";
}
}
// As of PHP 5.3.0
call_user_func_array(__NAMESPACE__ .'\Foo::test', array('Hannes'));
// As of PHP 5.3.0
call_user_func_array(array(__NAMESPACE__ .'\Foo', 'test'), array('Philip'));
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Hello Hannes! Hello Philip!
Example #3 Using lambda function
<?php
$func = function($arg1, $arg2) {
return $arg1 * $arg2;
};
var_dump(call_user_func_array($func, array(2, 4))); /* As of PHP 5.3.0 */
?>
The above example will output:
int(8)
Notes
Note:
Before PHP 5.4, referenced variables in
param_arrare passed to the function by reference, regardless of whether the function expects the respective parameter to be passed by reference. This form of call-time pass by reference does not emit a deprecation notice, but it is nonetheless deprecated, and has been removed in PHP 5.4. Furthermore, this does not apply to internal functions, for which the function signature is honored. Passing by value when the function expects a parameter by reference results in a warning and having call_user_func() returnFALSE(there is, however, an exception for passed values with reference count = 1, such as in literals, as these can be turned into references without ill effects — but also without writes to that value having any effect —; do not rely in this behavior, though, as the reference count is an implementation detail and the soundness of this behavior is questionable).
Note:
Callbacks registered with functions such as call_user_func() and call_user_func_array() will not be called if there is an uncaught exception thrown in a previous callback.

Using PHP 8, call_user_func_array call callback function using named arguments if an array with keys is passed to $args parameter, if the array used has only values, arguments are passed positionally.
<?php
function test(string $param1, string $param2): void
{
echo $param1.' '.$param2;
}
$args = ['hello', 'world'];
//hello world
call_user_func_array('test', $args);
$args = ['param2' => 'world', 'param1' => 'hello'];
//hello world
call_user_func_array('test', $args);
$args = ['unknown_param' => 'hello', 'param2' => 'world'];
//Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Unknown named parameter $unknown_param
call_user_func_array('test', $args);
?>
