# Platform Reflection Implementation Strategy
## Overview
This document outlines the implementation strategy for Platform Reflection, a cross-platform reflection system for Dart that serves as the foundation for our Laravel implementation.
## Core Requirements
### Cross-Platform Compatibility
- Must run on all Dart targets (VM, Web, Flutter)
- No dependency on dart:mirrors
- Pure Dart implementation for maximum portability
### Runtime Capabilities Required for Laravel
- Dynamic class instantiation with constructor resolution
- Property get/set with proper type handling
- Method invocation with parameter matching
- Annotation/attribute support for Laravel decorators
- Service container bindings support
- Dependency injection resolution
- Route reflection for controllers
- Middleware reflection
- Model reflection for ORM
- Event/listener reflection
- Policy/authorization reflection
## Reference Implementation Inspirations
### From Dart Mirrors (mirrors.cc/mirrors.dart)
- Mirror hierarchy design for clean abstraction
- Symbol resolution approach
- Type information handling
- Method and constructor parameter matching
- Library and declaration organization
### From fake_reflection
- Pure runtime reflection techniques
- Dynamic instance creation patterns
- Property access mechanisms
- Method invocation strategies
## Missing Critical Features to Implement
### Core Reflection
- Dynamic member lookup without hardcoding
- Complete constructor resolution system
- Proper method parameter matching
- Type hierarchy reflection
### Laravel Support
- Service container reflection
- Controller action reflection
- Model property/relationship reflection
- Policy method reflection
- Event handler reflection
### Type System
- Generic type handling
- Interface/mixin support
- Inheritance chain resolution
- Type alias support
### Member Access
- Dynamic property access
- Flexible method invocation
- Static member support
- Proper constructor resolution
## Implementation Plan
### 1. Enhance Type System
- Implement proper type hierarchy reflection
- Add generic type support
- Support interfaces and mixins
- Handle type aliases
### 2. Improve Member Access
- Implement dynamic property access
- Add flexible method invocation
- Support static members
- Enhance constructor resolution
### 3. Add Laravel-Specific Features
- Service container reflection support
- Controller reflection capabilities
- Model reflection support
- Policy/authorization reflection
- Event system reflection
### 4. Optimize Performance
- Implement metadata caching
- Optimize member lookup
- Efficient type checking
- Smart instance creation
## Conclusion
This implementation strategy focuses on building a robust reflection system that can serve as the foundation for our Laravel implementation while maintaining cross-platform compatibility and avoiding dart:mirrors dependencies. The approach draws inspiration from established reflection implementations while addressing the specific needs of our platform.
