Get the current PHP include path's setting

Answer:

To get the current PHP include path's setting, you can use the function get_include_path

E.g.

echo get_include_path();

Usually it is used with the set_include_path for adding extra path to the existing include_path,

E.g.

set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . "/data/path");
