Global $data array?

I've seen where people just added to the application/config/constants.php, but I don't like use that method because there are some default values in there, and to me this stuff ought to be in the system directory. Anyways, to add a constant, you just create another entry:

Code:

define('SOMETHING', array(
  'value',
  'value-two',
  'etc'
));

Then, in the place where you want to use the array, you access it like this:

Code:

var_dump( SOMETHING );

As far as I know the constants defined in application/config/constants.php should be loaded early enough that you could use them anywhere, but if not, then make a pre-init hook and define the array there. I do this in Community Cart, in case you want to see an example. The hook is located at application/hooks/my-site-definitions-hook.php. Community Cart link in my signature.
