require_once()

The require_once() statement includes and evaluates the specified file during the execution of the script. This is a behavior similar to the require() statement, with the only difference being that if the code from a file has already been included, it will not be included again. See the documentation for require() for more information on how this statement works.

require_once() should be used in cases where the same file might be included and evaluated more than once during a particular execution of a script, and you want to be sure that it is included exactly once to avoid problems with function redefinitions, variable value reassignments, etc.

For examples on using require_once() and include_once(), look at the PEAR code included in the latest PHP source code distributions.

Замечание: require_once() was added in PHP 4.0.1pl2

Замечание: Be aware, that the behaviour of require_once() and include_once() may not be what you expect on a non case sensitive operating system (such as Windows).

Пример 11-8. require_once() is case insensitive on Windows

<?php
require_once("a.php"); // this will include a.php
require_once("A.php"); // this will include a.php again on Windows!
?>

Внимание

Версии PHP для Windows до PHP 4.3.0 не поддерживают возможность использования удаленных файлов этой функцией даже в том случае, если опция allow_url_fopen включена.
