Description:
------------
Magic constants do not work in CLI. It simply returns the name of the constant - For example, if the constant is called __DIR__, it would just return __DIR__ instead of the directory the script is in.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
  echo(__DIR__);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
I expected it to echo the directory the script is in. Eg; E:\phpHuman.

Actual result:
--------------
It echos __DIR__ (the name of the constant).

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.
