You should not have an include within a function call. Among other
things, you 'll have problems if you call the function twice.

Actually, globals are bad things to use, anyway.

global $global_v1;
global $global_v2;

include "bar.php";
}

>> you 'll have problems if you call the function twice.

this can be solved by using include_once.

the reason of using function call to include is we want to selectively
include the needed files, prevent include useless files (i.e. factory
method?)

Better to use "requires_once()" or "include_once()".

(Top posting fixed)

It isn't that much overhead to include an extra file or two. But if you
do that a lot, perhaps you should examine your methods.

And please don't top post. Thanks.
