<h3>Global autoloader</h3>

If you are using the global autoloader for `/usr/share/php` then you can often just do:

    include_once("shared.phar");

Your include_path usually lists it already.

### Per-project autoloader

You can just copy the `shared.phar` from there and install it into a project directory, optionally rename it, then [update](wiki/update) it once. 

    include_once("./vendor/shared.phar");

You may wish to override the automatic [AUTOLOADER_UPDATE](wiki/AUTOLOADER_UPDATE) then for development setups.

### Project-wide

If you have a single application below your document root, then it might be even more convenient to utilize [`auto_prepend_file`](http://www.php.net/manual/en/ini.core.php#ini.auto-prepend-file) via `.htaccess`.

    SetEnv AUTOLOADER_UPDATE 1
    php_value auto_prepend_file /www/docroot/vendor/shared.phar

Which avoids even the `include_once` for the autoloader.
