There is another magic constant not mentioned above: __COMPILER_HALT_OFFSET__ - contains where the compiler halted - see http://www.php.net/manual/function.halt-compiler.php for further information.

To czabu:

your function can be much more lightweight when you use this:

<?php

function amIincluded() {

  $requestedURL = parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);

  if(basename($requestedURL['path']) != basename(__FILE__))

    return true;

  return false;

}

?>

the difference between 

__FUNCTION__ and __METHOD__ as in PHP 5.0.4 is that



__FUNCTION__ returns only the name of the function



while as __METHOD__ returns the name of the class alongwith the name of the function



class trick

{

      function doit()

      {

                echo __FUNCTION__;

      }

      function doitagain()

      {

                echo __METHOD__;

      }

}

$obj=new trick();

$obj->doit();

output will be ----  doit

$obj->doitagain();

output will be ----- trick::doitagain

Note that the magic constants cannot be included in quoted strings. 



For instance, 

echo "This is the filename: __FILE__";

will return exactly what's typed above.



echo "This is the filename: {__FILE__}";

will also return what's typed above.



The only way to get magic constants to parse in strings is to concatenate them into strings:

echo "This is the filename: ".__FILE__;

Sometimes you might want to know whether a script is the top level script or whether it has been included.  That could be useful if you want to reuse the routines in another script, but you don't want to separate them out.  Here's a way that seems to be working for me (for both Apache2 module and CLI versions of PHP) on my Win XP Pro system.



By the way, if __FILE__ is within a function call, its value corresponds to the file it was defined in and not the file that it was called from.  Also, I used $script and strtolower instead of realpath because if the script is deleted after inclusion but before realpath is called (which could happen if the test is deferred), then realpath would return empty since it requires an extant file or directory.



Csaba Gabor from Vienna



<?php

if (amIincluded()) return;    // if we're included we only want function defs

function amIincluded() {

//    returns true/false depending on whether the currently

//    executing script is included or not

//    Don't put this function in an include file (duh)!

    $webP = !!$_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'];    // a web request?

    $script = preg_replace('/\//',DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR,

                           $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']);

    return ($webP) ? (strtolower(__FILE__)!=strtolower($script)) :

           !array_key_exists("_REQUEST", $GLOBALS);

}

?>

in reply to x123 at bestof dash inter:

I believe, this is not a bug, but a feature.

__FILE__ returns the name of the include file, while $PHP_SELF returns the relative name of the main file.

It is then easy to get the file name only with substr(strrchr($PHP_SELF,'/'),1)

Note that __CLASS__ contains the class it is called in; in lowercase. So the code:



class A

{

    function showclass()

    {

        echo __CLASS__;

    }

}



class B extends A

{

}



$a = new A();

$b = new B();



$a->showclass();

$b->showclass();

A::showclass();

B::showclass();



results in "aaaa";

note that __FUNCTION__ define gives the the function name in lowercase

just to read out the filename of the currently proceeded file use

<?php basename(__FILE__); ?>

You can use the following in files that you want to include, but not run directly.  The script will exit if it's run as the top-level script, but will not exit if it's included from another script.  Of course this won't work in the command line mode. 



if (realpath(__FILE__) == realpath($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'])) {

  exit;

}

The keywords TRUE and FALSE (case insensitive), which represent their respective boolean values, are worth noting here.

As of version 4.0.6, there is also a handy predefined DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR constant which you can use to make you scripts more portatable between OS's with different directory structures.
