Req #31690 [Opn->Sus]: user specific additions to php.ini

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=31690&edit=1 ID: 31690 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: wf at bitplan dot com Summary: user specific additions to php.ini -Status: Open +Status: Suspended Type: Feature/Change Request Package: *Configuration Issues Operating System: all PHP Version: 5.0.3 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: In my opinion, it is not desireable to put application settings into php.ini. These could be supplied in an application specific ini file, instead. I might be missing a striking argument, though, but it seems to me this feature would require discussion on internals@lists.php.net and maybe even an RFC (see <https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto>). Therefore I'm suspending this ticket.

It is definitely something I could use. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-06 22:27:43] revan02 at googlemail dot com This kind of feature request would be great on any os. I've discovered the same issue and it would be great to hear a response because it's now some time ago that this CR has been submitted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-09 15:13:26] rb at bitplan dot com we are developing a product and we need that feature badly. The goal is to have our own section in php.ini. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-25 20:11:20] wf at bitplan dot com Description: ------------ a) When adding user specific entries to php.ini these are not returned. b) the location of php.ini is not available via a standard function The combination of a + b makes it almost impossible to have user specific additions to php.ini So ini_get() should allow to read user specific entries and/or the php.ini location should be available as a variable or via ini_get Reproduce code: --------------- a) php.ini contains: uml2phphome = "c:/Programme/BITPlan/UML2PHP" <?php echo ini_get("uml2phphome"); ?> b) echo PHP_INI_PATH; Expected result: ---------------- a) c:/Programme/BITPlan/UML2PHP b) c:/Windows/PHP.INI on my windows machine /usr/local/lib/php5.0.3/php.ini on my linux machine Actual result: -------------- nothing ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=31690&edit=1
