Examples

Example #1 Basic usage of ReflectionClass::getMethods()

<?php
class Apple {
    public function firstMethod() { }
    final protected function secondMethod() { }
    private static function thirdMethod() { }
}

$class = new ReflectionClass('Apple');
$methods = $class->getMethods();
var_dump($methods);
?>

The above example will output:

array(3) {
  [0]=>
  &object(ReflectionMethod)#2 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(11) "firstMethod"
    ["class"]=>
    string(5) "Apple"
  }
  [1]=>
  &object(ReflectionMethod)#3 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(12) "secondMethod"
    ["class"]=>
    string(5) "Apple"
  }
  [2]=>
  &object(ReflectionMethod)#4 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(11) "thirdMethod"
    ["class"]=>
    string(5) "Apple"
  }
}

Example #2 Filtering results from ReflectionClass::getMethods()

<?php
class Apple {
    public function firstMethod() { }
    final protected function secondMethod() { }
    private static function thirdMethod() { }
}

$class = new ReflectionClass('Apple');
$methods = $class->getMethods(ReflectionMethod::IS_STATIC | ReflectionMethod::IS_FINAL);
var_dump($methods);
?>

The above example will output:

array(2) {
  [0]=>
  &object(ReflectionMethod)#2 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(12) "secondMethod"
    ["class"]=>
    string(5) "Apple"
  }
  [1]=>
  &object(ReflectionMethod)#3 (2) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(11) "thirdMethod"
    ["class"]=>
    string(5) "Apple"
  }
}
