Bug #72846 getConstant for a array constant with constant values returns NULL/NFC/UKNOWN
Submitted: 2016-08-15 15:01 UTC Modified: 2016-08-15 15:15 UTC
From: info at nepda dot eu Assigned:
Status: Closed Package: Reflection related
PHP Version: 7.0.9 OS: Linux
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
If you have any namespace (e.g. "Some") and a (abstract or concrete) class (e.g. "A") with some constants in it and a class (e.g. "B") extending "A", the reflection class is not able to get the constant values of an array constant with constant values in it.

See example code.

Output with PHP 7.0.9:

    see "Actual result:"

with PHP 5.6.24 it's working:

    see "Expected result:"

Without the namespace, it's working on both versions.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

namespace Some {

    abstract class A
    {
        const ONE = '1';
        const TWO = '2';

        const CONST_NUMBERS = [
            self::ONE,
            self::TWO,
        ];

        const NUMBERS = [
            '1',
            '2',
        ];
    }

    class B extends A
    {
    }

    $ref = new \ReflectionClass('Some\B');

    var_dump($ref->getConstant('ONE'));
    var_dump($ref->getConstant('CONST_NUMBERS'));
    var_dump($ref->getConstant('NUMBERS'));
}


Expected result:
----------------
string(1) "1"
array(2) {
    [0]=>
  string(1) "1"
    [1]=>
  string(1) "2"
}
array(2) {
    [0]=>
  int(10)
  [1]=>
  int(11)
}

Actual result:
--------------
string(1) "1"
UNKNOWN:0
array(2) {
  [0]=>
  string(1) "1"
  [1]=>
  string(1) "2"
}
