Hi. To implement public readonly properties you can use getX(), getY(), getZ() methods (which then access the private vars) or you can use __get($var) to consolidate/simplify the number of methods. With the discrete getters() it is easy to docblock them. Everything is obvious, but there is a LOT of duplicate code and documentation. But how do you docblock __get()? With the magic functions __get(), __set(), __call(), __callStatic(), they act as proxies. It is NOT the proxy itself that is normally wanted to be documented (maybe in a cursory manner), but what is being proxied. If you are creating a WSDL file for SOAP and have __get() and __call(), then you would want to document each entry but without the code duplication. What is the best approach?
