getMethodClass() public static method

Given a method name, this will check all registered extension classes to see if any of them has the named method. If so, this will return the classname. Note that if two extensions are registered that contain the same method name, the last one registred will be the only one recognized.
public static getMethodClass ( string $name ) : string
$name string The name of the method.
return string The name of the class.
