Is it possible to reference an anonymous function from within itself in PHP?

Question

I'm trying to do something like the following:

// assume $f is an arg to the wrapping function
$self = $this;
$func = function() use($f, $ctx, $self){

    $self->remove($func, $ctx); // I want $func to be a reference to this anon function

    $args = func_get_args();
    call_user_func_array($f, $args);
};

Is it possible to reference the function assigned to $func from with the same function?

Try doing

$func = function() use (/*your variables,*/ &$func) {
    var_dump($func);
    return 1;
};
