note 112763 added to dir.constants

I think, you can avoid using DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR to make your configurations. Let us look at a piece of code from one of the nice tools I use. And compare the same work without this constant, below. <?php $class_dir = '..' . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'class'; require_once($class_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'BCGColor.php'); require_once($class_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'BCGBarcode.php'); require_once($class_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'BCGDrawing.php'); require_once($class_dir . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'BCGFontFile.php'); ?> And I would have written it as: <?php $class_dir = '../class'; require_once($class_dir.'/BCGColor.php'); require_once($class_dir.'/BCGBarcode.php'); require_once($class_dir.'/BCGDrawing.php'); require_once($class_dir.'/BCGFontFile.php'); ?> Does not it look good when it runs nicely over Windows too? No problems with Linux flavors. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 110.34.0.242 (proxied: 182.93.93.8) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/dir.constants.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/112763 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/112763 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/112763 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
