Hi,
i've got a little question that involves private properties,
inheritance and Reflection with PHP 5.3 RC1.
Given the following simple classes
class Foo {
private $foo = 'value';
public function getFoo() { return $this->foo; }
}
class Bar extends Foo {}
Obviously, given an instance of Bar, say $bar, $bar->getFoo() returns
'value'.
Now the question: How do I get at this value using reflection, given
an instance of Bar?
$class = new \ReflectionClass('Foo');
$fooProp = $class->getProperty('foo');
$fooProp->setAccessible(true);
$bar = new Bar;
$value = $fooProp->getValue($bar);
var_dump($value); // NULL
var_dump($bar); // array(1) { ["�Foo�foo"]=> string(5) "value" }
How do I get at the value exposed by "var_dump($bar);" through
reflection?
Obviously, I can't upcast like this: "$fooProp->getValue((Foo)$bar)".
I'm asking here because I have the bad feeling that this is might not
(yet?) be possible.
Thanks!
Roman
