Hey,
can you use a phar file for loading a library and not just executing a
script?
Yeah, you can include the phar (with a PHP include statement).
Can we use the phar in core?
Sure. One reason I've seen brought forward to bundle such a phar with a project is that then everyone runs the same version of PHPUnit.
Well, we shouldn't bundle it, but it'd be nice to use it if you've got it, rather than having PHPUnit installed in your include_path
Something like:
`php phpunit.php --phar=/foo/bar/phpunit.phar`
would be fantastic imho.
