Re: Handling Linux directory paths in Win32

[Jason Barnett <jasbarne@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've run into this exact problem many times.  Two things:

1) use the PEAR constant DIRECTORY_SEPERATOR, or define it yourself
if (PHP_OS == 'Win32' || PHP_OS == 'WinNT') {
  define('DIRECTORY_SEPERATOR', '\');
} else {
  define('DIRECTORY_SEPERATOR', '/');
}

2) I have two ways that I solve the relative include problem.
  a) include_once dirname(__FILE__) . 'path/to/relative/include.php';

  or for class libraries

  b) function __autoload($class) {
       // Use your own logic, I have mine defined to do PEAR-like loading
       $file = str_replace('_', DIRECTORY_SEPERATOR, $class);
       include_once($file . '.php');
     }

Note: PHP goes through the compile step, it's just that everything is compiled 
on demand.
