Reflection reports defined properties, but classes can have dynamic properties that are not pre-defined. var_dump also has a separate handler, so the object can present different information to var_dump. > Also, what comes out of var_dump() appears to be something intended for > human consumption?

In generic case, you can't have internal state of an object, that's why it's internal. If you need to serialize data, there are serialize/unserialize handlers for it. -- Stas Malyshev smalys...@gmail.com -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
