frog_jr Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 What are @PHP-DIR@ and @DATA-DIR@ ? I came across s piece of code containing some expressions that I haven't seen before. The code is establishing the presence of PEAR and then: $tstDir = '@PHP-DIR@/tst'; $cfgDir = '@DATA-DIR@/cfg'; Is this something "PEAR" specific or is this PHP? (Oh and I tried to do a search here for @PHP-DIR@ and got an error!)

Muddy_Funster Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Looks as though it is used in the same way as the % symbol is in windows eg if you open up command prompt and type cd %windir% then no matter what folder you are curently in it will take you to the folder that has your windows instalation in it (normaly c:\windows). Basicly it should use system refferencing to establish the directory rather than absoloute refferencing. That's just what it looks like to me though, I'm probably wrong.

lostnucleus Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 post the full code , from this information , it looks like just a string , since anything in single quote cannot have logic in it .
