To use this library simplycreate instances of:

* AdvancedReflectionClass,
 
* AdvancedReflectionMethod,

* AdvancedReflectionFunction,

These are extending the ReflectionClass, ReflectionMethod and
ReflectionFunction built in the PHP 5.x, so they are equipped 
with all the methods from the original Reflection PHP mechanism 
and additional ones:

* getBody() returns source code (string) containing main body of 
the class/method/function

* getDeclaration() returns source code (string) containing entire
 declaration of the class/method/function

* getStartColumn() returns starting column number (integer) of the
 class/method/function in the starting line of code (getStartLine()).

* getStartPosition() returns position (integer) of the first character
 of the class/method/function in the sourcecode file

Example taken from the PHP manual and modified for this library:

<?php
namespace A\B;

class Foo { public $test; }

$function = new \System\Reflection\AdvancedReflectionClass('A\\B\\Foo');

var_dump($function->inNamespace());
var_dump($function->getName());
var_dump($function->getNamespaceName());
var_dump($function->getDeclaration());

?>
