Bug description: make require accept wildcards
Description:
------------
I have a series of classes in PHP 4.3, there is no autoload feature there
so I named all my files "class.$className.inc.php".
I created the class.inc.php file which require_onces all class.*.inc.php
files.
This works fine for files which are inside the same directory as
class.*.inc.php
BUT, when I include class.inc.php from another directory the `ls
$wildcard` comes up empty, thus nothing is included.
Wouldn't it be a good feature to have a require_once_wildcard which
includes files.
A problem that may rise is the includeSearchPath (in which directory
should the wildcard be executed?). A solution is to execute only in the
directory where the file resides which calls require_once_wildcard.
My source for require_once_wildcard is in the Reproduce code field.
Reproduce code:
---------------
function require_once_wildcard($wildcard) {
$ls = `ls $wildcard`;
$ls = explode("\n", $ls);
array_pop($ls); // strip last empty line
print_r($ls);
foreach ($ls as $inc) {
require_once($inc);
}
}
