`If you ever need to get the type hint of a parameter in a method use this.

parameters=parameters = parameters=reflector->getMethod('FireCannon')->getParameters();//Loop through each parameter and get the type foreach($parameters as $param) { //Before you call getClass() that class must be defined! echo $param->getClass()->name; }?>

`if you ever need to get the body of a method, use this extension (https://github.com/sagittaracc/reflection):

namespace sagittaracc\classes;

class Test
{
public function method()
{
if (true) {
return 'this method';
}

return 'never goes here';
}
}

$reflection = new ReflectionClass(Test::class); method=method = method=reflection->getMethod('method');
echo $method->body; // if (true) { return 'this method'; } return 'never goes here';
