How to pass variables to Bootstrap.php

[Redeem]

Is there a way how I could pass variables to Bootstrap.php? This is how I bootstrap in the index.php:\[code\]// let's go!$application = new Zend_Application(APPLICATION_ENVIRONMENT, APPLICATION_PATH.'/configs/application.ini');try { $application->bootstrap(); $application->run();} catch (Exception $exception) { echo $exception->getMessage(); exit(1);}\[/code\]In one method of my Bootstrap.php class I need to have access to some variables from index.php and using $GLOBALS is just awful:\[code\]protected function _initFilePathConverter(){ require_once (PATH_TO_LIB_UTIL.'/FilePathConverter.php'); $this->aFilePathConverter = new FilePathConverter(); $this->aFilePathConverter->AddPathPairs($GLOBALS['REAL_PATHS'], $GLOBALS['HTTP_PATHS']);}\[/code\]
