Subject: string operators for assigning class constants
From: admin@ifyouwantblood.de ("Sebastian")

hi,

why isn't it possible to assign class constants like this:

class test
{
           const 
DIR='dirname'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'anotherdirname'.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
}

is there some performance issue?
anyone ever tried this or was there a discussion about it? i would find this 
very useful.....

greetings
