php包含链

Question

Here is my problem, I ve got an old website which contains some modules like this,

root_dir
    |-->module1
    |-->module2
    |-->module3

For my need I add a sublevel to this structure, like this,

root_dir
    |-->module1
    |-->module2
        |-->submodule2.1
    |-->module3

My problem is that each module include an "include.php" file which then include other files, so if I fix the first path of the include.php to ../include.php it will crash at the second include file...

Is there a good workaround here, besides duplicating all the files and fix the path of the include ?

Thx

Answer 1

Have you tried using include_once for your common include.php file:

include_once('../include.php');

Or including the code once in a common ancestor file.

Or am I over simplifying? Are these options to you?
