For php7, I compare parameters type as well, you can have two constructors with same number of parameters but different type.
trait GenericConstructorOverloadTrait
{
/**
* @var array Constructors metadata
*/
private static $constructorsCache;
/**
* Generic constructor
* GenericConstructorOverloadTrait constructor.
*/
public function __construct()
{
$params = func_get_args();
$numParams = func_num_args();
$finish = false;
if(!self::$constructorsCache){
$class = new \ReflectionClass($this);
$constructors = array_filter($class->getMethods(),
function (\ReflectionMethod $method) {
return preg_match("/\_\_construct[0-9]+/",$method->getName());
});
self::$constructorsCache = $constructors;
}
else{
$constructors = self::$constructorsCache;
}
foreach($constructors as $constructor){
$reflectionParams = $constructor->getParameters();
if(count($reflectionParams) != $numParams){
continue;
}
$matched = true;
for($i=0; $i< $numParams; $i++){
if($reflectionParams[$i]->hasType()){
$type = $reflectionParams[$i]->getType()->__toString();
}
if(
!(
!$reflectionParams[$i]->hasType() ||
($reflectionParams[$i]->hasType() &&
is_object($params[$i]) &&
$params[$i] instanceof $type) ||
($reflectionParams[$i]->hasType() &&
$reflectionParams[$i]->getType()->__toString() ==
gettype($params[$i]))
)
) {
$matched = false;
break;
}
}
if($matched){
call_user_func_array(array($this,$constructor->getName()),
$params);
$finish = true;
break;
}
}
unset($constructor);
if(!$finish){
throw new \InvalidArgumentException("Cannot match construct by params");
}
}
}
To use it:
class MultiConstructorClass{
use GenericConstructorOverloadTrait;
private $param1;
private $param2;
private $param3;
public function __construct1($param1, array $param2)
{
$this->param1 = $param1;
$this->param2 = $param2;
}
public function __construct2($param1, array $param2, \DateTime $param3)
{
$this->__construct1($param1, $param2);
$this->param3 = $param3;
}
/**
* @return \DateTime
*/
public function getParam3()
{
return $this->param3;
}
/**
* @return array
*/
public function getParam2()
{
return $this->param2;
}
/**
* @return mixed
*/
public function getParam1()
{
return $this->param1;
}
}
