I'm trying to retrieve arguments of phar::__construct() with ReflectionMethod::getArguments(). Phar::__construct() take only 3 arguments, but my script return 4 arguments, as if PharData::__construct() was used instead of Phar::__construct() by the reflection API. In fact, ext/phar_object.c contains the following comments : /* {{{ proto void Phar::__construct(string fname [, int flags [, string alias]]) * Construct a Phar archive object * {{{ proto void PharData::__construct(string fname [[, int flags [, string alias]], int file format = Phar::TAR]) * Construct a PharData archive object */ PHP_METHOD(Phar, __construct) { ... } Test script: --------------- <?php $method = new reflectionMethod('phar', '__construct'); foreach ($method->getParameters() as $parameter) { var_dump($parameter->getName()); var_dump($parameter->isOptional()); var_dump($parameter->isDefaultValueAvailable()); } ?> Expected result: ---------------- string(8) "filename" bool(false) bool(false) string(5) "flags" bool(true) bool(false) string(5) "alias" bool(true) bool(false) Actual result: -------------- string(8) "filename" bool(false) bool(false) string(5) "flags" bool(true) bool(false) string(5) "alias" bool(true) bool(false) string(10) "fileformat" bool(true) bool(false) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52909&edit=1
