Autoload functions in PHP?

Question

PHP

With autoloading classes/interfaces/objects in php, everything is already more or less digestible. I thought about the task of a similar mechanism for autoloading functions (libraries) in php, Google and Yandex did not offer anything interesting on the topic, maybe someone here has solutions or at least ideas on this issue?

Answer 1

The solution is to throw them into a specific folder and download them in advance. There are no autoload functions in PHP.

Answer 2

there is no solution, but this issue is being discussed by the developers. write a letter to the mailing list in support of this feature so that it is included in the language.

Answer 3

Only crutches come to mind.
Well, or make functions static methods of the class.
