Method with include isn't receiving variables

Question

The goal

Pass $title for my view _Layout.phtml.

Home.phtml

$title = 'My application';

[...]

MasterPage::Invoke('Layout');

Layout.phtml

<?php echo $title; ?>

Invoke's method of MasterPage

[...]

public static function Invoke($layout)
{
    include_once File::Get($layout)
}

Notice: Undefined variable: title in [...] on line 32

Probably scoping issue - when include is called within function, included variables won't be introduced to global scope. You can debug using var_dump(get_defined_vars()); - call it within your function and within global scope and see what is going on. — Mikk, Nov 29 '13 at 19:05
Seems like the variable doesn't exist in my function. In my `Home.phtml` I can see it and in `Layout.phtml` I just see the same error that I said before. — Guilherme Oderdenge, Nov 29 '13 at 19:18

Include directives are limited to variables in local scope, and the only variable in this scope:

public static function Invoke($layout)
{
    include_once File::Get($layout)
}

is $layout.

To "import" variables into this scope you can do something similar to: https://stackoverflow.com/a/10144260/925196
