in php5 what is the technical term for specifying class name before object variable in a function parameters
<p><code>function(myCar $cars)</code></p>

<p>What is the technical term of myCars?</p>

<p><code>catch(Exception $e)</code></p>

<p>I know what is the try, catch block and exception term. But I want the technical name for representing a class name.</p>
