set_include_path

set_include_path — Sets the include_path configuration option
Description
string set_include_path ( string $new_include_path )
Sets the include_path configuration option for the duration of the script.
Parameters
new_include_path
The new value for the include_path
Return Values
Returns the old include_path on success or FALSE on failure.
Examples
Example #1 set_include_path() example
<?php
set_include_path('/usr/lib/pear'
// Or using ini_set()
ini_set('include_path', '/usr/lib/pear'
?>
Example #2 Adding to the include path
Making use of the PATH_SEPARATOR constant, it is possible to extend the include path regardless of the operating system.
In this example we add /usr/lib/pear to the end of the existing include_path.
<?php
$path = '/usr/lib/pear';
set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . $path
?>
