Here's an idea for the maintainer of the Reflection API, to be able to view
the class a method is defined in (if not overridden).
class Vehicle {
function go() {}
function crash() {}
}
class Car extends Vehicle {
function crash() {}
function collectInsurance() {}
}
class Ford extends Car {
function fixOrRepairDaily() {}
}
Reflection::export(new ReflectionClass(Car));
Class [ <user> class Ford extends Car ] {
- Methods [4] {
Method [ <user> public method fixOrRepairDaily ] {
}
Method [ <user> public method crash inherited from Car ] {
}
Method [ <user> public method collectInsurance inherited from Car ] {
}
Method [ <user> public method go inherited from Vehicle ] {
}
}
I am developing on a Windows machine so a Unified Patch isn't easily
attainable (with the tools I have at least).
Psuedo Patch:
Modify _function_string in zend_reflection_api.c to take a zend_class_entry
of the reflecting class or NULL if not used in a class context.
Then add the "inherited from" section as below (or however you'd like to
implement).
string_printf(str, "%s", fptr->common.function_name);
if (fptr->common.scope && memcmp(fptr->common.scope->name, ce->name)) {
string_printf(str, " inherited from %s", fptr->common.scope->name);
}
string_printf(str, " ] {\n");
Not sure if this works in all situations, I'll leave that for you guys to
determine if you think this is useful functionality.
