PHP Reference

Description

array func_get_args ( void )

Returns an array in which each element is the corresponding member of the current user-defined function's argument list. func_get_args() will generate a warning if called from outside of a function definition.


<?php

function foo() 

{

    $numargs = func_num_args();

    echo "Number of arguments: $numargs<br />\n";

    if ($numargs >= 2) {

        echo "Second argument is: " . func_get_arg(1) . "<br />\n";

    }

    $arg_list = func_get_args();

    for ($i = 0; $i < $numargs; $i++) {

        echo "Argument $i is: " . $arg_list[$i] . "<br />\n";

    }

} 



foo(1, 2, 3);

?>

func_get_args() may be used in conjunction with func_num_args() and func_get_arg() to allow user-defined functions to accept variable-length argument lists.
