From: noah at missionecommerce dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.6 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: php needs a compile-time include/require like #include
Description: ------------ Using include/require in a loop causes horrible preformance, because of the additional stat, file read, and opt-code compile on every loop iteration. PHP really needs a method to do compile-time includes/requires as well as the current run-time include/require. I would like to be able to do #include like in C and have the compiler insert the contents of the file into the script BEFORE compilation. This shouldn't be a complicated feature addition, and it would make life alot easier when developing with large projects with alot of reusable code. Reproduce code: --------------- for( $i = 0; $i < 1000; $i ++ ) { // I want run this code by including the file // But this code is not appropriate to make a function for // And its very long, so I dont just want to paste the code inside // this loop because it makes developement more confusing include '/www/some_code_snippet.php'; } Expected result: ---------------- Although I knew include was a run-time event, I was hoping behavior to #include in C. Actual result: -------------- Tracing the code, I found it produced 1000 file stats, 1000 file reads, and 1000 opt-code compiles -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=46189&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=46189&r=mysqlcfg
