get_included_files --  Returns an array with the names of the files include_once()'d in a script

Description

array get_included_files (void)

This function returns an array of the names of all the files that have been loaded into a script using require_once() or include_once().

The example below

Example 1. Printing the required and included files


<?php

require_once ("local.php");
require_once ("../inc/global.php");

for ($i=1; $i<5; $i++)
  include "util".$i.".php";

  echo "Required_once/Included_once files\n";
  print_r (get_required_files());
will generate the following output: 


Required_once/Included_once files
Array
(
  [0] => local.php 
  [1] => /full/path/to/inc/global.php
  [2] => util1.php 
  [3] => util2.php 
  [4] => util3.php 
  [5] => util4.php 
)

Note: In PHP 4.0.1pl2 this function assumed that the include_once files end in the extension ".php", other extensions do not work. Also, in that version the array returned was an associative array, and listed only the included files.
