Reproduced in PHP 5.3.2
Same error while trying to instantiate other classes from mscorlib
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Description:
------------
$test = new DOTNET('mscorlib', 'System.IO.File');
That yields a "Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message
'Failed to instantiate .Net object [CreateInstance] [0x80131513] '" error. Per
the comments on php.net/class.dotnet, I thought this might work, instead, but
it doesn't:
$test = new DOTNET('mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089, processorArchitecture=x86', 'System.IO.File');
The example on php.net, however, does work:
$test = new DOTNET('mscorlib', 'System.Collections.Stack');
I think what the problem really is is this: System.IO.File is a static class.
It's not intended to be instantiated whereas System.Collections.Stack is. In
light of this, I think either the ability to call methods within static dotnet
classes ought to be added or, failing that, a note should be added to the
documentation stating that only instantiatable classes can be used with the
DOTNET object.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$test = new DOTNET('mscorlib', 'System.IO.File');
Expected result:
----------------
(nothing)
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'com_exception' with message 'Failed to
instantiate .Net object [CreateInstance] [0x80131513] ' in C:\path\to\test.php:3
Stack trace:
#0 C:\path\to\test.php(3): dotnet->dotnet('mscorlib, Versi...
