Magic Methods and Constants Magicmethods are specially named methods that can be defi nedin any class and are executed via  builtin PHP functionality. Magic methods always begin with a double underscore. In fact, the magic methods  __destruct() and __construct() have already been used several times. It is often useful to determine where in the code output originates. This is the purpose of all of the magic  constants and is particularlyuseful when writing custom logging functions.  The seven magic constants are as follows: __CLASS__ equates to the class in which the constant is referenced.  As noted earlier, this variable is always equal to the class in which it is defi ned, which is not always the class  that was instantiated. For example, __CLASS__ as defi ned inside Node always returns Node even  if the method is part of an object that  was instantiated as a descendant class.  In addition to debugging, the class constant is also useful for static callback functions. __FILE__ is always equal to the file name where the constant is referenced. __LINE__ is used in conjunction with __FILE__ in order  to output a location in code.
