apc_load_constants — Loads a set of constants from the cache
Description
bool apc_load_constants
( string $key
[, bool $case_sensitive = true
] )
Loads a set of constants from the cache.
Parameters
- key
-
The name of the constant set (that was stored with apc_define_constants()) to be retrieved.
- 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.
Return Values
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
