# apc_define_constants

(PECL)

apc_define_constants -- Defines a set of constants for later retrieval and mass-definition

## Описание

bool apc_define_constants ( string key, array constants [, bool case_sensitive] )

define() is notoriously slow. Since the main benefit of APC is to increase the performance of scripts/applications, this mechanism is provided to streamline the process of mass constant definition.

> Замечание: To remove a set of stored constants (without clearing the entire cache), an empty array may be passed as the `constants` parameter, effectively clearing the stored value(s).

## Список параметров

`key`

  The `key` serves as the name of the constant set being stored. This `key` is used to retrieve the stored constants in apc_load_constants().

`constants`

  An associative array of `constant_name => value` pairs. The `constant_name` must follow the normal constant naming rules. `value` must evaluate to a scalar value.

`case_sensitive`

  The default behaviour for constants is to be declared case-sensitive; i.e. `CONSTANT` and `Constant` represent different values. If this parameter evaluates to `FALSE` the constants will be declared as case-insensitive symbols.

## Возвращаемые значения

Возвращает `TRUE` в случае успешного завершения или `FALSE` в случае возникновения ошибки.

## Примеры

Пример 1. apc_define_constants() example

`<?php
$constants = array(
'ONE' => 1,
'TWO' => 2,
'THREE' => 3,
);
apc_define_constants('numbers', $constants);
apc_load_constants('numbers');
echo ONE, TWO, THREE;
?>`

Результат выполнения данного примера:

    123
