PHP type reflection.

Methods

static Type|null
fromReflection(ReflectionFunctionAbstract|ReflectionParameter|ReflectionProperty $reflection)

Creates a Type object based on reflection. Resolves self, static and parent to the actual class name.

static Type
fromString(string $type)

Creates the Type object according to the text notation.

static string
resolve(string $type, ReflectionFunctionAbstract|ReflectionParameter|ReflectionProperty $of)

Resolves 'self', 'static' and 'parent' to the actual class name.

string
__toString()

No description

array
getNames()

Returns the array of subtypes that make up the compound type as strings.

array
getTypes()

Returns the array of subtypes that make up the compound type as Type objects:

string|null
getSingleName()

Returns the type name for simple types, otherwise null.

bool
isUnion()

Returns true whether it is a union type.

bool
isIntersection()

Returns true whether it is an intersection type.

bool
isSimple()

Returns true whether it is a simple type. Single nullable types are also considered to be simple types.

bool
isSingle() deprecated

No description

bool
isBuiltin()

Returns true whether the type is both a simple and a PHP built-in type.

bool
isClass()

Returns true whether the type is both a simple and a class name.

bool
isClassKeyword()

Determines if type is special class name self/parent/static.

bool
allows(string $subtype)

Verifies type compatibility. For example, it checks if a value of a certain type could be passed as a parameter.
