Config file

[fesan]

I'm making a config file for a quite big "program" I'm making.

 

With the config i want to set some variables and functions that i just can include whenever i need them.

Can I in some way just include one part of the config file insted of the whole thing?

 

I have just started to make it and to use it so it isn't that big yet but as I develop the config file will be quite big and it is useless for the users to process all the info that is not needed for that exact page.

You can't just include parts of a single file. I'd recommend breaking the file up into smaller files that you can include as and when you want.

 

For example,

 

/config/db.php = All the database configuration variables and functions

/config/user.php = All the user specific configuration variables and functions

etc.

I have the DB info in separate files already.

If it doesn't work it doesn't work...

 

Thanks!

But if u got some good coding skills ya can make it a bit more dynamic.

I have built several module loaders, based on my needs.

 

One module loader, which is the root of the site, just processes pages based on the pages db entry.

 

A Simple module loader, I wrote for QuickPHP (Lightweight web server primarily for testing/debugging php). processed modules and the global

environment variables, as well as providing a log for.

 

but its all about wut u need, and how u wish to load the modules.

As phil said, its all about seperating the different pieces, than either load them manually, or develop a system for loading the pieces.
