This method will return the parent's constructor, if the current class does not override it.NULL will only be returned when the class has no constructor AND none of its parents have a constructor either.
(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
ReflectionClass::getConstructor — Obtém o construtor da classe
Obtém o construtor da classe refletida.
Esta função não possui parâmetros.
Um objeto ReflectionMethod refletindo o construtor da classe ou null se a classe
não tem construtor.
Exemplo #1 Uso básico de ReflectionClass::getConstructor()
<?php
$class = new ReflectionClass('ReflectionClass');
$constructor = $class->getConstructor();
var_dump($constructor);
?>O exemplo acima produzirá:
object(ReflectionMethod)#2 (2) {
["name"]=>
string(11) "__construct"
["class"]=>
string(15) "ReflectionClass"
}
This method will return the parent's constructor, if the current class does not override it.NULL will only be returned when the class has no constructor AND none of its parents have a constructor either.Just posting some example code for anyone wanting to mess around with this stuff:<?phpclass Say{ private $what_to_say; public function __construct($no_default, $word = "Hello World", $options = array('a', 'b')) { $this->what_to_say = $word; } public function speak() { echo $this->what_to_say; }}$class = new ReflectionClass('Say');$constructor = $class->getConstructor();echo $constructor;/* OUTPUTS:Method [ <user, ctor> public method __construct ] { @@ /reflect.php 6 - 9 - Parameters [3] { Parameter #0 [ <required> $no_default ] Parameter #1 [ <optional> $word = 'Hello World' ] Parameter #2 [ <optional> $options = Array ] }}*/$parameters = $constructor->getParameters();var_export($parameters);/* OUTPUT:array ( 0 => ReflectionParameter::__set_state(array( 'name' => 'no_default', )), 1 => ReflectionParameter::__set_state(array( 'name' => 'word', )), 2 => ReflectionParameter::__set_state(array( 'name' => 'options', )),)*/$nl = "\n";echo "$nl\tParameters$nl";foreach($parameters as $param){ echo "****** $" . $param->name .

<?php
class SomeClass {
function SomeClass($some_arg) {
}
}
$refl = new ReflectionClass('SomeClass');
var_dump($refl->isInstantiable()); // bool(true)
echo $refl->getConstructor();
/* OUTPUT:

}
}
*/
?>
Some more behavior:
<?php
class SomeClass {
function funcA($arg1, $arg2) {
}
}
$refl = new ReflectionClass('SomeClass');
var_dump($refl->isInstantiable()); // bool(true)
var_dump($refl->getConstructor()); // NULL
/* --------------- */
class AnotherClass {
private function __construct() {
}
function funcB($arg1, $arg2) {
}
}
$refl = new ReflectionClass('AnotherClass');
var_dump($refl->isInstantiable()); // bool(false)
echo $refl->getConstructor();
/*
Method [ <user, ctor> private method __construct ] {
@@ /testRefl.php 22 - 23
}
*/
?>
