Note Submitter: gn_shallyNOSPAM at yahoo dot com ---- actually, __halt_compiler did something, even in eval function, that things is set the constant __COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET__ to the right value as all of you might know, PHP will change content of some magic constant like __FUNCTION__, __CLASS__, etc based on the situation. so do the __COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET__ constant, is a file specific constant, just like the __FILE__ constant, the content will be changed based on wich file the __halt_compiler() reside. try this: /**** whatever.php ****/ <?php eval('echo __FILE__."(".__COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET__.")\n"; __halt_compiler();'); echo __FILE__."(".__COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET__.")\n"; __halt_compiler(); if (!isset($whatever)) { $whatever = 'whatever'; include __FILE__; } __halt_compiler();whatever
