How to read smarty config variable from PHP behind?

What function can I use in PHP for class Smarty which reads a variable's value from the Smarty's config file?

Here's my code:

<?

session_start();

require('libs/Smarty.class.php');

$smarty = new Smarty;

$smarty->config_load("settings.conf");

include('settings.php');
include('meta.php');

$smarty->debugging = false;
$smarty->caching =false;
$smarty->cache_lifetime = 120;



include("categories.php");
include("manufacturers.php");
include("logos.php");

print_r($smarty->getConfigVariable("showCategories"));

close_database_session($dbconn);

//$smarty->display('index.tpl');



?>

smarty->configLoad(...) produces a notice like

"Notice: function call 'config_load' is unknown or deprecated."

A workaround is putting an @ in front of the call like
@smarty->configLoad($cfgFile)

Here is the simple way to get your smarty assigned config variables:

print_r of your $smarty object and note down your config variables.

Get those variables of say settings.conf:

 $category_title1 = $smarty->_config[0]['vars']['driving_license_category'];

You can then use as you like it in PHP.

I did it using this code:

$templ->fetch('template_that_loads_config.tpl');
print_r($templ->_config[0]['vars']);

With get_config_vars() (you have to load the configuration beforehand with config_load()).

Example from the documentation:

// get loaded config template var #foo#
$myVar = $smarty->get_config_vars('foo');

// get all loaded config template vars
$all_config_vars = $smarty->get_config_vars();

Update (Smarty 3.0 RC1):

For Smarty 3.0 RC1 it is

$smarty->configLoad($config_file, $sections = null)
// and
$smarty->getConfigVariable($variable)

Note there is no official documentation yet but the methods available are listed in the included README file.
