Including site variables in a class

[Anon]

Hi all.

Is it possible (and if so, how's it done) to include an ".inc" file in a class declaration?

Why would I want to do this?

I have a globals.inc file, with ALL the variables for a very large site. It would be nice if the classes could grab the variables from that file instead of redeclaring them manually. This would make site upkeep (and migration) much easier.

I could write a base.class and include everything in there, but is there a way of doing it as described above?

Thanks!
