Test script: --------------- <?php $ref = new ReflectionClass('SimpleXMLElement'); $constructor = $ref->getConstructor(); print_r($constructor->getParameters()); Expected result: ---------------- Array ( 'paramname' => 'type' ) Actual result: -------------- Array ( ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53991&edit=1
