(PHP 4 >= 4.3.0, PHP 5)
set_include_path — Sets the include_path configuration option
Sets the include_path configuration option for the duration of the script.
Returns the old include_path on success или FALSE в случае возникновения ошибки.
Пример #1 set_include_path() example
<?php
// Works as of PHP 4.3.0
set_include_path('/inc');
// Works in all PHP versions
ini_set('include_path', '/inc');
?>
Пример #2 Adding to the include path
Making use of the PATH_SEPARATOR constant, it is possible to extend the include path regardless of the operating system.
In this example we add /usr/lib/pear to the end of the existing include_path.
<?php
$path = '/usr/lib/pear';
set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . $path);
?>
