Properties

$fqsen

protected Fqsen $fqsen

Fully Qualified Structural Element Name; the FQCN including method, property or constant name

$summary

protected string $summary = ''

A summary describing the function of this element in short.

Methods

__call()

Dynamically constructs a set of getters to retrieve tag (collections) with.

public __call(string $name, array<string|int, mixed> $arguments) : Collection<string|int, TagDescriptor>|null

Important: __call() is not a fast method of access; it is preferred to directly use the getTags() collection. This interface is provided to allow for uniform and easy access to certain tags.

Parameters
