This patch introduces new lib/pluginlib.php library that provides
unified access meta-information about all present plugin types. The
library defines plugin_manager singleton that in turn gathers
information about all present plugins and their status. The list of
plugins can be rendered either as plugins check table or plugins control
panel.
This makes print_plugins_table() function obsolete and because it is not
expected to be called by any contrib plugin, the function is removed.
CSS for the legacy table generated by print_plugins_table() is cleaned
up.
This allows profiling to be started earlier in the
setup.php execution, by configuring everything in
the config.php file. That way some interesting code
is also profiled, like DB connections, load of config records...
100% compatible with normal profiling and enabled via
special setting $CFG->earlyprofilingenabled
Example (to be put on config.php):
$CFG->earlyprofilingenabled = true;
$CFG->profilingautofrec = 3;
$CFG->profilingincluded = '/*';
$CFG->profilingallowme = true;
(to enable early profiling for 1/3 of any requests while also
allowing to use the PROFILEME PGC)
This patch reimplements the internal cache that was used to store the
list of available translations in Moodle 1.x. By default, the method
get_list_of_translations() still uses the file
moodledata/cache/languages to store the list of available translations.
The location of that file can be redefined in config.php. The internal
format of the cache file is JSON now (used to be a plain text list).
The patch also fixes a usage of the global $CFG in translation_exists()
methods where the internal property should be used instead.
Make sure admins know things can go wrong, MSSQL and Oracle were never working, fix block_html config saving issue, skip a lot more tables because the data there is serialised() or can not be changed in case of config tables, more warnings and checkbox confirmation.
As Eloy Lafuente noticed in the tracker discussion, we display the
information about the current version in the browser window title but
not at the screen itself. The patch fixes that by displaying the
information in the page heading instead of the page title.
Eloy's original idea to put the information into the grey message box
would require a change of [upgradesure,core_admin] string because
unfortunately it does not expect $a as an object but as a plain string.
The commit introduces four new constants that can be used to declare a
maturity level of Moodle core and, in the future, of extension plugins.
If the administrator is about to install or upgrade Moodle to a version
that is not considered as production-ready yet, a warning is displayed
before any change in the database.
This is a final cleanup commit of fullname and shortname issue. All
places where these strings were detected yet have been replaced with
proper fullnamecourse or fullnameuser or some other context specific
string.
