I posted this on netbeans forums site first, but got no reply. If you are not a netbeans user, please skip this message. I have also done an exhaustive search on the web to no avail. I am hoping the moderator would allow it, and that someone from the vast participation of php developers who use netbeans with php might be able to shed some light on it.
My platform is Win XP, php 5.2.1, and NetBeans 6.7.1 (Build 200907230233). The netbeans include path feature doesn’t seem to work.
My netbeans project has a simple php script that includes a php script located in another directories.
Here is my script.
<?php //test_script.php
require_once(“included_module.php”);
function_call_from_included_module();
?>
When I run it, it errors out saying require_once(“included_module.php”) … failed to open stream. No such file or directory and shows the directory path of test_script.php.
I added the folder name containing included_module.php under Tools->Options->php->global include path, but that didn’t help.
I added the folder name containing included_module.php under Include Files for the project, but that doesn’t seem to work either.
However, when I CTRL+hover over require_once(“included_module.php”), a pop up appear saying INCLUDE: include(included_module.php). I can click on it and it open the included_module.php script in a separate. When I remove the path to included_module.php under Include Path, CTRL+hover doesn’t do anything , which tells me that the ide does see my included_module.php in the folder listed under the Include Path.
I also tried changing my code from require_once to include_once and just include, but the file doesn’t get included at the execution time. What am I doing wrong.?
Thanks.
Alex.
