I believe PHP lacks a function to get constant values by
name where the constant's name is stored in a string variable.

What I mean is something like

function get_constant($const_name)
{
        eval ("\$myvar = " . $const_name . ";");
        return $myvar;
}

but I really think that using eval() here is a waste.

Am I missing something?
