## Properties

name

  Name of the class. Read-only, throws ReflectionException in attempt to write.

## Predefined Constants

## ReflectionClass Modifiers

`ReflectionClass::IS_IMPLICIT_ABSTRACT`

  Indicates class that is abstract because it has some abstract methods.

`ReflectionClass::IS_EXPLICIT_ABSTRACT`

  Indicates class that is abstract because of its definition.

`ReflectionClass::IS_FINAL`

  Indicates final class.
