Bug description: ReflectionMethod::invoke() and ::invokeArgs() static method
calls should match
Description:
------------
ReflectionMethod::invoke() and ReflectionMethod::invokeArgs()
implementations currently do not support the same functionality.
Currently, ReflectionMethod::invoke() can be called using a string class
name as the first argument *if* the method is declared static. However,
ReflectionMethod::invokeArgs(), called the same way, raises a warning and
does not invoke the method:
Warning: ReflectionMethod::invokeArgs() expects parameter 1 to be
object, string given
Calling with a string class name is undocumented currently, but a useful
feature to have. I'd request that invokeArgs() be made to match the
current invoke() functionality, and the documentation updated to indicate
this usage.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class MyClass
{
public static function doSomething()
{
echo "Did it!\n";
}
}
$r = new ReflectionMethod('MyClass', 'doSomething');
$args = array();
$r->invoke('MyClass', array());
$r->invokeArgs('MyClass', $args);
Expected result:
----------------
Did it!
Did it!
Actual result:
--------------
Did it!
Warning: ReflectionMethod::invokeArgs() expects parameter 1 to be object,
string given in ... line 13
