Use reflection as a fallback.

[clemens-tolboom]

When running json2dot we get a lot of "Not found" of which most are solvable when failling back on reflection I guess.

• [ ] Is this doable?
• [ ] When excluding the project ie /vendor those classes will never be scanned thus trigger the fallback. Guess we should only try to resolve root package classes like \ArrayAccess

uml-generator-php$ bin/uml-generator-php run | grep "Not found" | sort -u

Not found: \ArrayIterator

Maybe we need to implement it the way PhpStorm does it. It has spl.php which is an empty implementation for build-in php classes.

[clemens-tolboom]

The spl.php contains multiple classes ... where to put those json files?

I think we should reuse our reflection based code which generated the missing files based on the runtime php version to generate a set of jsons.

Maybe we can prepackage but that would introduce bugs for our users as their binary PHP version may differ.

I found a file online http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/apache_mod_php/apache_mod_php-44/php/ext/spl/spl.php (not sure what to do with it :p)
