NamedType

class NamedType implements Type
{
    /**
     * @param class-string|string $name
     * @param list<Type>          $arguments
     */
    public function __construct(
        public readonly string $name,
        public readonly array $arguments = [],
    ) {}
}

This is very similar to native reflection’s ReflectionNamedType. Just like the native type, it represents types that refer to class-likes (e.g. classes, interfaces, traits and enums) and built in primitives. All of these are considered a NamedType:

• int, float, bool, string, object, resource
• array, array<string>, array<string, string>
• iterable, iterable<string, string>
• \Exception, \Your\Class, \Generator<string, \Your\Class>
• callable, callable(string): int, \Closure, \Closure(string): int

However, a few types are handled differently from ReflectionNamedType:

• self -> NamedType but refers to the actual class name
• parent -> NamedType but refers to the actual parent class name
• static -> StaticType
• mixed -> MixedType
• ->allowsNull() -> NullableType
• never -> NeverType
• void -> VoidType
