The require() statement includes and evaluates the specific file.
require() includes and evaluates a specific file. Detailed information on how this inclusion works is described in the documentation for include().
require() and include() are identical in every way except how they handle failure. include() produces a Warning while require() results in a Fatal Error. In other words, don't hesitate to use require() if you want a missing file to halt processing of the page. include() does not behave this way, the script will continue regardless. Be sure to have an appropriate include_path setting as well.

See the include() documentation for more examples.
Замечание: Prior to PHP 4.0.2, the following applies: require() will always attempt to read the target file, even if the line it's on never executes. The conditional statement won't affect require(). However, if the line on which the require() occurs is not executed, neither will any of the code in the target file be executed. Similarly, looping structures do not affect the behaviour of require(). Although the code contained in the target file is still subject to the loop, the require() itself happens only once.
Замечание: Поскольку это языковая конструкция, а не функция, она не может вызываться при помощи переменных функций

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. |
