At the moment there is no way to find out if a parameter for a method has a default value or not. It would be nice is the ReflectionParameter class had something like the the following methods. <boolean> ReflectionParameter->isRequired() Returns TRUE if the parameter is required or FALSE if it is not required (and therefore has a default value). <mixed> ReflectionParameter->getDefault() Returns the default value for the parameter. This could throw an Exception if no default value is set as it could be possiable for the default value to be FALSE :) Reproduce code: --------------- n/a Expected result: ---------------- n/a Actual result: -------------- n/a ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=29728&edit=1
