<p>Usage of the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">EXT</span></code> constant has been deprecated since dropping support for PHP 4. There’s no
longer a need to maintain different filename extensions and in this new CodeIgniter version,
the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">EXT</span></code> constant has been removed. Use just ‘.php’ instead.</p>
