ID: 36687 Updated by: helly@php.net Reported By: elias at adaptiveinstance dot com Status: Open -Bug Type: Class/Object related +Bug Type: Feature/Change Request -Operating System: linux +Operating System: * PHP Version: 5CVS-2006-03-10 (snap) -Assigned To: +Assigned To: johannes New Comment: getClass() is an alias for getDeclaringClass() in 5.1 and will be dropped in later versions. What you want is a new method maybe named getParameterClass() or getTypeHintClass(). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-10 22:19:12] elias at adaptiveinstance dot com Description: ------------ The method ReflectionParameter::getDeclaringClass() always return the wrong result. I should reaturn the reflection object of the declaring class and not that of the typehint class. Further this method has been introduced somewhere between php 5.0.5 and 5.1.3, but the documentation doesn't mention it. Reproduce code: --------------- class OtherClass {} class MyClass { function myMeth(OtherClass $param0, $param1){} } $class = new ReflectionClass('MyClass'); $params = $class->getMethod('myMeth')->getParameters(); var_dump($params[0]->getDeclaringClass()); var_dump($params[0]->getClass()); var_dump($params[1]->getDeclaringClass()); var_dump($params[1]->getClass()); Expected result: ---------------- object(ReflectionClass)#2 (1) { ["name"]=> string(10) "MyClass" } object(ReflectionClass)#2 (1) { ["name"]=> string(10) "OtherClass" } object(ReflectionClass)#2 (1) { ["name"]=> string(10) "MyClass" } NULL Actual result: -------------- object(ReflectionClass)#2 (1) { ["name"]=> string(10) "OtherClass" } object(ReflectionClass)#2 (1) { ["name"]=> string(10) "OtherClass" } NULL NULL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=36687&edit=1
