note 50562 added to function.require-once

For those who misses Java-like import , here's a handy implemention. It may not well handle Singletons and References, but I think it'll do fine for most cases... Hey people do not steal it, keep it GNU GPL please... The following code is preseverd by GNU GPL: function import($class){ $base_class = "PATHTO/WEB-INF/classes"; $class_strut = explode(".",$class); if(sizeof($class_strut)<1) trigger_error("too short class invocation"); if($class_strut[sizeof($class_strut)-1] == "*"){ $tmp_class_strut = $class_strut; unset($tmp_class_strut[sizeof($tmp_class_strut)-1]); $tmp_base_class = $base_class."/". implode("/",$tmp_class_strut); $d = dir($tmp_base_class); while (false !== ($entry = $d->read())) { if($entry == "." || $entry == "..") continue; require_once($tmp_base_class."/".$entry); } $d->close(); // Do you recognize this Example??? }else{ if(file_exists($base_class."/". implode("/",$class_strut).".class.php")) require_once($base_class."/". implode("/",$class_strut).".class.php"); else require_once($base_class."/". implode("/",$class_strut).".php"); } $vars = get_defined_vars(); foreach($vars as $var => $value){ $GLOBALS[$var] = $value; }// Hey remember you're inside a function, // you've got to globalise value here to outside... } ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.require-once.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+50562 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50562&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50562&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50562&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50562&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50562&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+50562&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
