To reflect on a namespaced class in PHP 5.3, you must always specify the fully qualified name of the class - even if you've aliased the containing namespace using a "use" statement.

So instead of:

<?php
use App\Core as Core;
$oReflectionClass = new ReflectionClass('Core\Singleton');
?>

You would type:

<?php
use App\Core as Core;
$oReflectionClass = new ReflectionClass('App\Core\Singleton');
?>

Reflecting an alias will give you a reflection of the resolved class.

<?php

class X {
   
}

class_alias('X','Y');
class_alias('Y','Z');
$z = new ReflectionClass('Z');
echo
$z->getName(); // X

?>

Unserialized reflection class cause error.

<?php
/**
* abc
*/
class a{}

$ref = new ReflectionClass('a');
$ref = unserialize(serialize($ref));
var_dump($ref);
var_dump($ref->getDocComment());

// object(ReflectionClass)#2 (1) {
//   ["name"]=>
//   string(1) "a"
// }
// PHP Fatal error:  ReflectionClass::getDocComment(): Internal error: Failed to retrieve the reflection object
?>

It is also possible to do reflection from within the class and get the methods for instance.

<?php

class test
{
    private
$test = "";

    public function
setTest($test)
    {
       
$this->test = $test;
        return
$this;
    }

    public function
getTest()
    {
        return
$this->test;
    }
   
    public function
run(){
       
$class = new ReflectionClass('test');
       
$methods = $class->getMethods();
       
var_dump($methods);
    }
}

Called from another php file you get the proper result:
array(
3) {
  [
0]=>
  &
object(ReflectionMethod)#3 (2) {
   
["name"]=>
   
string(8) "setTest"
   
["class"]=>
   
string(4) "test"
 
}
  [
1]=>
  &
object(ReflectionMethod)#4 (2) {
   
["name"]=>
   
string(8) "getTest"
   
["class"]=>
   
string(4) "test"
 
}
  [
2]=>
  &
object(ReflectionMethod)#5 (2) {
   
["name"]=>
   
string(3) "run"
   
["class"]=>
   
string(4) "test"
 
}
}
