(PHP 5)
This function returns an array with the name of the parent classes of the given class.
An object (class instance) or a string (class name).
Whether to allow this function to load the class automatically through the __autoload magic method. Defaults to TRUE.
Returns an array or FALSE on error.
Example 1. class_parents() example
<?phpclass foo { }class bar extends foo {}print_r(class_parents(new bar));// since PHP 5.1 you may also specify the parameter as a stringprint_r(class_parents('bar'));function __autoload($class_name) { require_once $class_name . '.php';}// use __autoload to load the 'not_loaded' classprint_r(class_parents('not_loaded', true));?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Array ( [foo] => foo ) Array ( [parent_of_not_loaded] => parent_of_not_loaded )
