Callable stops execution of router

[leocavalcante]

Well, actually this isn't a bug. The constructor of TestController will always be called, indeed, you're doing it at [(new TestController), "page"], it is not something on the Siler internals... We can't prevent or predict user code inside a lib/framework.

I agree it cannot be prevented, this is why I propose a workaround that will work with non-static methods without side effects

[leocavalcante]

Handling class construction isn't a Siler concern, at least for now, you should look for something like Pimple. Yet you could just wrap it in a Closure:

Route\get('user', function () {
  $c = new TestController();
  return $c->page();
});

@leocavalcante this is actually a problem as the documentation says the router can use any callable. In this case it is a problem as it causes code execution that the user will be unaware of. I agree its not a problem with Siler per se, but this is the way this particular callable works. If Siler decides not to address this, this is fine, but the documentation needs to be updated to caveat this case.

I believe other routers have recognized this as a problem and have come up with a solution:

Sorry for reposting so many times. Github was showing 500 page and unable to post message.

NP, I got some buggy behavior from Github too.
