        The <classname>Zend_Server_Reflection</classname> tree provides a standard

        callbacks with the server classes, and provides data suitable for use
        with <classname>Zend_Server_Interface</classname>'s <methodname>getFunctions()</methodname>
        and <methodname>loadFunctions()</methodname> methods.
