[Phpwm] PHP eclipse problem

[pete graham]

Elliot,

Here is a better explanation of how I structure my code. In the eclipse
project I wanted to set projectname as the root directory.

Now projectname/htdocs is the webroot. Every single file in htdocs includes
a file called config.inc.php. The file includes this code:

if(preg_match("/WINDOWS/i", $_SERVER["SystemRoot"]))
{
    // THIS IS A WINDOWS MACHINE

    ## Include paths
    $_PATHS["base"]            = dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . "\\";
    $_PATHS["includes"]        = $_PATHS["base"] . "includes\\";
    $_PATHS["templates"]    = $_PATHS["base"] . "templates\\";
    $_PATHS["pear"]            = $_PATHS["base"] . "pear\\";
    $_PATHS["logs"]            = $_PATHS["base"] . "logs\\";
    $_PATHS["sidebar"]        = $_PATHS["base"] . "sidebar\\";

    /**
    * Set include path
    */
    ini_set("include_path",

".;$_PATHS[includes];$_PATHS[templates];$_PATHS[pear];$_PATHS[sidebar]");

}else{
    // NOT A WINDOWS MACHINE (Linux, Mac, FreeBSD)

    ## Include paths
    $_PATHS["base"]            = dirname(dirname(__FILE__)) . "/";
    $_PATHS["includes"]        = $_PATHS["base"] . "includes/";
    $_PATHS["templates"]    = $_PATHS["base"] . "templates/";
    $_PATHS["pear"]            = $_PATHS["base"] . "pear/";
    $_PATHS["logs"]            = $_PATHS["base"] . "logs/";
    $_PATHS["sidebar"]        = $_PATHS["base"] . "sidebar/";

    /**
    * Set include path
    */
    ini_set("include_path",

".:$_PATHS[includes]:$_PATHS[templates]:$_PATHS[pear]:$_PATHS[logs]:$_PATHS[sidebar]");
}

this lovely bit of code means that I don't have to type:

include_once("../includes/functions.php");

I can just do this instead:

include_once("functions.php");

Unfortunately eclipse does not seem to enjoy this style of structuring which
is a shame because I find it highly effective.

I shall have to look into your suggestion of using a problems filter, that
sounds promising.

Pete
