Submitted: 2011-08-22 12:16 UTC Modified: 2021-07-22 09:19 UTC

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/reflectionmethod.invokeargs%23Description
---

There is differences between call_user_func_array and Reflection::invokeArgs 
method. Some magic methods are correctly called by call_user_func_array, but not 
in Reflection Object

Test script:
---------------
if I do this:
// Example: $clientSoap->runTransaction($arguments)

// call_user_func_array
$result = call_user_func_array( array($clientSoap, 'runTransaction'), $arguments );
if (!is_soap_fault($result)) {
    echo 'The method __doRequest from SoapClient object is called (This is what we want).';
}

// with reflection
$reflectionMethod = new ReflectionMethod('SoapClient', 'runTransaction');
try {
    $result = $reflectionMethod->invokeArgs( $clientSoap, $arguments );
    if (!is_soap_fault($result)) {
    echo 'The method __doRequest from SoapClient object is called (This is what we want).';
    }
} catch (ReflectionException  $r) {
    echo 'The method __doRequest is never called because the methode invokeArgs throw a ReflectionException.';
}

Expected result:
----------------
This should be display:
The method __doRequest from SoapClient object is called (This is what we want).
The method __doRequest from SoapClient object is called (This is what we want).

Actual result:
--------------
The method __doRequest from SoapClient object is called (This is what we want).
The method __doRequest is never called because the methode invokeArgs throw a 
ReflectionException.

This is old, but I gave the code. How to be more verbose?
Anyway, you can copy/paste code below, it is an example more explicit

<?php

$clientSoap = new SoapClient('http://www.webservicex.net/geoipservice.asmx?WSDL');
$arguments = array('IPAddress' => '8.8.8.8');

// classic call
$result = $clientSoap->GetGeoIP($arguments);
//var_dump($result); // $result is ok

// call_user_func_array
$result = call_user_func_array( array($clientSoap, 'GetGeoIP'), array($arguments) );
if (!is_soap_fault($result)) {
    echo 'OK not a problem.'.PHP_EOL;
}

// with reflection
$reflectionMethod = new ReflectionMethod($clientSoap, 'GetGeoIP');
try {
    $result = $reflectionMethod->invokeArgs( $clientSoap, array($arguments) );
    if (!is_soap_fault($result)) {
        echo 'Ok not a problem.'.PHP_EOL;
    }
} catch (ReflectionException  $r) {
    print_r($r); // Method SoapClient::GetGeoIP() does not exist
}

-------------------------------------------

The error raise is:
"Uncaught exception 'ReflectionException' with message 'Method SoapClient::GetGeoIP() does not exist' in [...]"

This is because $clientSoap is an instanceof SoapClient and the Reflection object does not try to use __getFunctions methods.
Why? Because the call is like this:
ReflectionMethod->__construct(Object(SoapClient), 'GetGeoIP')

Right, Reflection does not know about any methods implemented via
__call[1] or similar mechanisms.  This should be documented.
