I works great, but I’ve some remarks regarding ReflectionException. Calling ReflectionParameter::getClass() will raise an exception when class definition isn’t already included. That’s fine, it’s an expected behavior. The problem is that I have no way to get the missing class name. Ok, I could parse message string, but this way it becomes (unintentionally) part of the public API. What do You think about having sth like Class ReflectionExceptionClassNotDefined extends ReflectionException { public string getClassName(); } Reproduce code: --------------- class A { public function __construct(B $b) { $this->b = $b; } } $rc = new ReflectionClass('A'); $rconstr = $rc->getConstructor(); $rparams = $rconstr->getParameters(); try { $paramclass = $rparams[0]->getClass(); } catch (ReflectionException $e) { //no way to get 'B' name here, without parsing msg string } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=32177&edit=1
