Unset function?

How do you unset a function like you would a variable?

[benj0323]

I was wondering how I would go about accomplishing this:

function some_func() {
print 'hey';
}

unset(some_func());

Is this possible, or is there a more professional way to unset a function instead of doing:

function some_func() {
}

Thanks for your help.

I don't understand why you would need or want to do this.

want to hit us up with the logic you are trying to acheive and I am sure there is an alternative.

It's actually pretty complicated.

I'd be here all day explaining why I need to do this. For now I'm just doing:

function func_name() {}

It works but Id rather unset it.

there is no unset for functions

unset() destroys the specified variables.

unsetting a function isn't really something that should be necessary, that's why I was asking. Please don't take offence but I think your logic went awry somewhere if this is required.

Though if it is that complicated then I am sure you have evaluated all of your options, sometimes things just need to be how they need to be and concessions are made.

Well basically I'm using the smarty template engine and integrating it in with my software. I dont want to go into smarty and edit the code so I can easily update smarty in the future. Smarty provides a function called smarty_function_popup. It provides tooltips that I use in my software. In their user account they can turn this off, so basically I need to unset the function so that in the smarty templates this function doesnt work.

Unsetting the function is much better logic vs. putting if statements around each time I use the popup function.

it's a hack ;)

but you are right, I think the way you are doing it is the best way.
