Detailed Description

Common functions required by init scripts.

Function Documentation

bootstrap()

bootstrap

(

$sysconfdir = ""

)

Determine SYSCONFDIR, parse fossology.conf.

Parameters

$sysconfdir

Typically from the caller's -c command line parameter

Returns

the $SysConf array of values. The first array dimension is the group, the second is the variable name. For example:

• $SysConf[DIRECTORIES][MODDIR] => "/mymoduledir/

The global $SYSCONFDIR is also set for backward compatibility.

\Note Since so many files expect directory paths that used to be in pathinclude.php to be global, this function will define the same globals (everything in the DIRECTORIES section of fossology.conf).
