In-depth explanation of the php define() function and the usage of the defined() function_PHP Tutorial

The define() function defines a constant.
define()函数的作用是：定义一个常量。
Constants are much like variables, except for the following differences:
常量[constant]与变量[variable]有很多相似的地方，因此，很容易混淆；下面，我们列举一下常量[constant]与变量[variable]之间的不同点：

•A constant's value cannot be changed after it is set
一个常量值在指定之后就不可以更改；
•Constant names do not need a leading dollar sign ($)
设置常量时，不需要在前面加上“$”符号；
•Constants can be accessed regardless of scope
常量可以被所有范围的域访问；
•Constant values can only be strings and numbers
常量的值只能是“字符串[string]”和“数字[number]”；

语法

复制代码 代码如下:

define(name,value,case_insensitive)

Parameter 参数	Description 描述
name	Required. Specifies the name of the constant 必要参数。指定常量的名称
value	Required. Specifies the value of the constant 必要参数。指定常量的值
case_insensitive	Optional. Specifies whether the constant name should be case-insensitive. If set to TRUE, the constant will be case-insensitive. Default is FALSE (case-sensitive) 可选参数。指定常量的名称是否是不区分大小写的[case-insensitive]。如果设置为True，则不区分字母大小写；如果设置为False，则区分字母大小写。默认值是：False
