[SOLVED] simple require question ?

[bitHacker]

if I require a file... can the required file find which file required him ?

 

for ex.

test.php:

<?
    require('inc/db.php');
?>

 

inside db.php can I know that test.php is the file that required me ?

Logging it would be the only way I can think of.

test.php:

<?php
define('TEST', TRUE);

 

db.php:

<?php
if (defined(TEST))
{
    echo "required by test.php";
}

since requiring a file is essentially the same as cut/pasting to php, you can just use basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) or other similar script reference globals inside db.php

ok, cool.

 

apparently $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] gave me the test.php full path (including the file name)

so I'm guessing basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) will give me the result i need...

 

thanks guys !
