How to avoid inspection warning when call a static method of a variable class name in PhpStorm?

When I call something like:

$class_name = 'AppModelsUser';
$class_name::create($attributes);

PhpStorm shows an inspection warning "Method ‘create’ not found in string".

I don’t want to switch off this inspection, as it’s very useful in other cases. Is there another way to avoid the warning, using annotations or something else?

    I've found another way, maybe someone will use it:

    call_user_func($class . '::create', $attributes);

    Not ideal, but works fine

    The warning you’re seeing in PhpStorm is likely due to the fact that PhpStorm is statically analyzing the code, and when you use a string to represent a class name, PhpStorm can’t infer the actual class and, therefore, doesn’t recognize the methods associated with that class.

    To mitigate this, you can use PHPDoc annotations:

    /** @var AppModelsUser $class */
$class = 'AppModelsUser';

$class::create($attributes);
