From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: All PHP version: 4.3.0 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: include() and Variables
What follows is a feature request. Searching the existing feature requests have not turned up any similar results. I have found that it might be convenient to allow include() and/or require() to be able to accept a variable as input. A couple of scenarios that this might be useful: * Caching script segments * Evaluating PHP inside of templates My workaround has been to dump a variable to disk and then include it as a file, after determining a unique file name to use. After including the file, it was deleted from disk. This was for a templating system that could recursively include other templates that may or may not include php. The reason for the approach was to reuse php as a the template scripting language, as well. Performance on my test server has been okay, but I am sure that with a large amount of traffic, the file i/o would slow the process down considerably. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21971&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21971&r=gnused
