This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation
better.

Method and Functions are in no way derived. Thus the following design
approach was taken:
class ReflectionMethod extends ReflectionFunctionAbstract implements
Reflector
class ReflectionFunction extends ReflectionFunctionAbstract implements
Reflector

The documentation is wrong, both ReflectionMethod & ReflectionFunction
extend abstract class called "ReflectionFunctionAbstract".

(reclassified as documentation problem)
The docs are wrong (and really outdated).
ReflectionMethod and ReflectionFunction both extend
ReflectionFunctionAbstract.
(see: php --rc ReflectionMethod && php --rc
ReflectionFunction or php --re reflection)

Description:
------------
The doc (http://fr.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.reflection.php)
state that ReflectioMethod be a ReflectionFunction.
class ReflectionFunction implements Reflector { }
class ReflectionMethod extends ReflectionFunction { }
But this is not how it works in PHP : when using type hinting, any
ReflectionMethod passed to a function or method that expect a
ReflectionFunction fails instead of working like with normal type
hinting.
Reproduce code:
---------------
class Foo {
public function bar(ReflectionFunction $fct) {
...
}
}
$c = new ReflectionClass('Foo');
$foo = new Foo();
$foo->bar($c->getMethod('bar'));
Expected result:
----------------
This should work because ReflectionMethod is a sub class of a
ReflectionFunction, and type hinting normally allows such thing (or the
documentation
[http://fr.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.typehinting.php] should say
it clearly...)
Actual result:
--------------
[E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR] Argument 1 passed to Foo::bar() must be an
instance of ReflectionFunction, instance of ReflectionMethod given,
called in ... on line ... and defined' in ...
