constant variables accessable everywhere

[eluser]pdxbenjamin[/eluser]
Is there a place I can put a "config" file that holds a variables like time and client ID, so that every controller and function in the class has access to?

The project I'm working on is time sensitive and a global time must be the same across the site, and to make my life easier I wanted to create a global config area and not set the time in each function in every controller.


Thanks,

constant variable is kind of an oxy moron hehe :-P

application/constants.php holds pre-defined constants. Why not put your constants in there?

You can also create another php file in the aforementioned application/config directory. Then in your application/config/autoload.php you add your config file name to the $autoload['config'] array.

Code:

$autoload['config'] = array('config, another_config');

Use the name of your config file without the .php file extension.
