Introduction to PHP’s magic constant METHOD, constant __method_

__METHOD__ is a new magic constant after PHP5, which represents the name of the class grammar. Magic constant is a PHP predefined constant whose value can change. Other existing magic constants in PHP include __LINE__, __FILE__, __FUNCTION__, __CLASS__, etc.

The following is a small piece of code to demonstrate the usage of __METHOD__.

<&#63;php
class chhua{
	function test(){
		echo __METHOD__;
	}
}
 
$e=new chhua();
 
$e->test();//输出：chhua::test

How to use PHP magic constants

Use
directly. For example,
wants to get the location of the script file
__FILE__;

Where is the file of magic constants in php? How can I see what the magic constants are?

Magic constants
__LINE__ The current line number in the file.
__FILE__ The full path and file name of the file. If used within an included file, returns the name of the included file. Since PHP 4.0.2, __FILE__ always contains an absolute path (or the resolved absolute path in the case of a symbolic link), whereas versions before that sometimes contained a relative path.
__DIR__ The directory where the file is located. If used within an included file, returns the directory where the included file is located. It is equivalent to dirname(__FILE__). Directory names do not include the trailing slash unless they are the root directory. (New in PHP 5.3.0) =
__FUNCTION__ function name (New in PHP 4.3.0). Since PHP 5 this constant returns the name of the function as it was defined (case sensitive). In PHP 4 this value is always lowercase.
__CLASS__ The name of the class (new in PHP 4.3.0). Since PHP 5 this constant returns the name of the class when it was defined (case sensitive). In PHP 4 this value is always lowercase. The class name includes the scope in which it is declared (e.g. Foo\Bar). Note that since PHP 5.4 __CLASS__ also works for traits. When used within a trait method, __CLASS__ is the name of the class that calls the trait method.
__TRAIT__ The name of the Trait (new in PHP 5.4.0). Since PHP 5.4 this constant returns the name of the trait as it was defined (case-sensitive). The trait name includes the scope in which it is declared (e.g. Foo\Bar).
__METHOD__ The method name of the class (newly added in PHP 5.0.0). Returns the name of the method as it was defined (case-sensitive).
__NAMESPACE__ The name of the current namespace (case sensitive). This constant is defined at compile time (new in PHP 5.3.0).

Magic methods
__construct(), __destruct(), __call(), __callStatic(), __get(), __set(), __isset(), __unset(), __sleep(), __wakeup() , __toString(), __invoke(), __set_state() and __clone() and other methods are called "Magic methods" in PHP. You cannot use these method names when naming your own class methods unless you want to use their magic functionality.
