ReflectionType::isBuiltin — Checks if it is a built-in type

Examples
Example #1 ReflectionType::isBuiltin() example
<?php class SomeClass {} function someFunction(string $param, SomeClass $param2, StdClass $param3) {} $reflectionFunc = new ReflectionFunction('someFunction'); $reflectionParams = $reflectionFunc->getParameters(); var_dump($reflectionParams[0]->getType()->isBuiltin()); var_dump($reflectionParams[1]->getType()->isBuiltin()); var_dump($reflectionParams[2]->getType()->isBuiltin());
The above example will output something similar to:
bool(true) bool(false) bool(false)
Note that the ReflectionType::isBuiltin() method does not distinguish between internal and custom classes. To make this distinction, the ReflectionClass::isInternal() method should be used on the returned class name.
