Defined constants - FCPATH |
Hi
I got a problem with defined constant. FCPATH... ... // Path to the front controller (this file) define('FCPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/'); ... exactly the part '/' makes problem to me. in windows local, this code: $path = FCPATH . $folder; echo $path; is generating something like: D:\xampp\docs\domain/orders And it's a problem. Easy way to correct this, is to use DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR instead of '/'. But it isn't very good practice to edit index.php file. Please give me an idea, what is the best to do... Thanks.
While using DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR is the correct thing to do (and we'll do that in 3.0.6), I'm qurious to know what kind of a problem is that for you?
I haven't used Windows for a while, but don't remember ever having problems with forward slashes in my paths.
I don't see what DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR improves. In a quite customized system I use something like this:
Code: // The variable $FCPATH variable is set in another file config.php at the same directory as of index.php
Of course that word "problem" is not used very well. Let's say "inconvenience".
When I have been checked if directory exists like : if(isset($blabla))... I got wrong answer. But only on XAMPP. Now, when narf answered my question greatly, i will edit index.php and I'll write @todo message form me and team. This way , nobody will forget. Thanks for reply. |
