public static ReflectionObject::export(string $argument, bool $return = ?): string

Exports a reflection.

Warning

This function is currently not documented; only its argument list is available.

return: Setting to true will return the export, as opposed to emitting it. Setting to false (the default) will do the opposite.

If the return parameter is set to true, then the export is returned as a string, otherwise null is returned.
