Installing ImageWokshop

[Goodoh]

I am all new to this but a willing leaner.
I search the forum and found this advice testing if installed.
To the point as I have un commented all require_once in all files in PHPImageWorkshop folder that I have in my lib folder.
test this script.

Got True

output:
test

Got false
Tested that file ImageWorkshop.php exists and got True
Then tried

output
fatal error: call to undefined function require_once()in C:\apachehtdocs\website\test.php on line 3
then tried

And I got the same fatal error as before
At other times doing something a little different
fatal error :require_once():failed opening required"PHPImageWorkshop/ImageWorkshop.php'(include_path='.;C:apache\php\PEAR')in C:\apache\htdocs\website\test.php on line 3
Your help would be very appreciated.
When I down loaded the zip ImageWorkshop_master only recently it is on my download file and I have unzipped and have the file PHPImageWorkshop in my lib file as it says inn the installations etc. I am using xampp with with php5.5.0 if that may be of importance
Thanks Goodoh

Hi Goodoh, are you sure this is not a problem of syntax ? Because in your snippets you are calling : "requier_once" instead of "require_once" to include file ? Your last code should work (if you uncommented all require_once in the files of the lib as you said).

Thankyou for your reply.
It's not that as with my spelling.
Tried that and it was miss spelling, but on changing that I got error
undefined function on line 3.
before had namespace must come first and on line 3
use PHPImageWorkshop\ImageWorkshop;
Understanding Namespace.
\ /.
The path to requier_once('lib/PHPImageWorkshop/ImageWorkshop.php');
That's straight forward.
$layer=ImageWorkshop::initXXX(...);
Is it now say
$textLayer=ImageWorkshop::initTextLayer('Testing','/resources/arial.ttf',11,'000000',0);

and so on but I can't get past line 3 You can see I have arial.ttf in
resources.
I don't know as to the cause.
The namespace.
perhaps you know and also keeping to a basic understanding,as just maybe
something.
It will be interesting trying re sizing.

Hi @Goodoh I read your error :

fatal error :require_once():failed opening required"PHPImageWorkshop/ImageWorkshop.php'(include_path='.;C:apache\php\PEAR')in 

This means that your script don't find the library file. Are you sure having this folder structure :

• C:/apachehtdocs/website/test.php
• C:/apachehtdocs/website/lib/PHPImageWorkshop/ImageWorkshop.php

You shloud try before all the code this :

var_dump(file_exists('lib/PHPImageWorkshop/ImageWorkshop.php')); exit;

If false, the path is wrong ^^
