<title>Overloaded Methods</title>
<para>
The returned object is an overloaded object, which means that PHP does
not see any fixed methods as it does with regular classes; instead, any
property or method accesses are passed through to COM.
</para>
<para>
PHP will automatically detect methods that accept
parameters by reference, and will automatically convert regular PHP
variables to a form that can be passed by reference. This means that you
can call the method very naturally; you needn't go to any extra effort in
your code.
