My realization simply add "__construct" method into class via AST injection. Another words, code "($cc, $whells)" considered as zend_ast node "parameter_list" and accordingly processed by standart way. You can declare property type like you declare them inside standard method. Also you can declare defaults for parameters, use "..." notation (there is a nuance) and do everything else. class MyCustomMotorCycle(int $cc, int $whells = 3, ...$otherParams) extends MotorCycle("Custom", $cc){ };
