vB Hacking Question - Not sure of location

Not sure where to post this, so I figure I will post it here, and the mods can move it if they see fit.

My question is this. There is a hack, not sure which one, but it tells you how to connect to the vb database on non-vb pages. The code that the hack gave is the following:

Code:



<?php

$curdir = getcwd ();

chdir('/path/to/your/forums');

require_once('/path/to/your/forums/global.php');

chdir ($curdir);

?>

If I was to build a CMS, using the code above to connect to the database, can I publish the hack here at vb? Now the rest of the code will be mine, but the code above, that plays a vital role in my CMS, isn't written by me. Is this a problem when it comes to releasing it here?

yes, you can use it ... you can even find it within vBulletin files if you look for it
