Codeigniter Environment setting

Codeigniter development environment is not setting. I always use this code in index.php. but i don’t understand why i am getting “production” as output while i am working on localhost.

switch(dirname(__FILE__)){
 case "H:wampwwwsitedirectory":
    define('ENVIRONMENT', 'development');
 break;
 default:
    define('ENVIRONMENT', 'production');
 break;
 }

  echo ENVIRONMENT ;   // output is "production" while i am on localhost
  echo dirname(__FILE__) ;  // output is "H:wampwwwsitedirectory"

Answer

That’s strange. It did the exact same thing for me. Could you try something like this?

switch($_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"]){
 case "localhost":
    define('ENVIRONMENT', 'development');
 break;
 default:
    define('ENVIRONMENT', 'production');
 break;
 }

 echo ENVIRONMENT ;   // output development
