declaring constants in a class

[Anon]

is it possible to declare constants in a class outside of a function definition. one can declare variables with "var" but is there a way to do it with constants? otherwise, i have to call a function to define constants, which seems awkward.

thanks,

You could define them in your constructor...
class foo{
function foo() {
// define you constants
if(!defined("FOO"))
define("FOO", "bar");
}
}

Or you could define them before you class definition
if(!defined("FOO"))
define("FOO", "bar");
class foo {
// internal class stuff
}

I always define my constants inside my constructor, but that is just my preference.
