Description:
------------
Hi,

I have found two issues with the reflection api in php5.

1. The reflection API does not invoke the __autoload() function when checking to see if a class exists. Therefore if you rely on the __autoload() function to call the required files you get a 'ReflectionException' exception  with message 'Class XXXX does not exist'

2. The reflection API returns object of UNKNOWN type in the constants array when you call the $class->getConstants() method when a class constant is defined like so:

const BBB = SameClass::AAA;

In addition to the issues reported, It will also invoke __autoload to try to find the Reflection_Class class generating a

Warning: __autoload(... file ...) failed to open stream.

as its trying to find the source file to locate the reflection api base classes.

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

Reflection_Class does not exist it is ReflectionClass .
Apart from that the bug is fixed.
