# Moodle Upgrade notes
This file contains important information for developers on changes to the Moodle codebase.
More detailed information on key changes can be found in the [Developer update notes](https://moodledev.io/docs/devupdate) for your version of Moodle.
The format of this change log follows the advice given at [Keep a CHANGELOG](https://keepachangelog.com).
## 4.5rc1
### core
#### Added
- Add `\core_user::get_name_placeholders()` to return an array of user name fields.
For more information see [MDL-64148](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-64148)
- The following classes have been renamed and now support autoloading.
Existing classes are currently unaffected.
| Old class name | New class name |
| --- | --- |
| `\core_component` | `\core\component` |
For more information see [MDL-66903](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-66903)
- Added the ability for unit tests to autoload classes in the `\[component]\tests\`
namespace from the `[path/to/component]/tests/classes` directory.
For more information see [MDL-66903](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-66903)
- Added a helper to load fixtures from a components `tests/fixtures/` folder:
```php
advanced_testcase::load_fixture(string $component, string $fixture): void;
```
For more information see [MDL-66903](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-66903)
- Redis session cache has been improved to make a single call where two were used before.
For more information see [MDL-69684](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-69684)
- Added stored progress bars
For more information see [MDL-70854](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-70854)
- Two new functions have been introduced in the \moodle_database class:
- `get_counted_records_sql()`
- `get_counted_recordset_sql()`
These methods are compatible with all databases.
They will check the current running database engine and apply the COUNT window function if it is supported,
otherwise, they will use the usual COUNT function.
The COUNT window function optimization is applied to the following databases:
- PostgreSQL
- MariaDB
- Oracle
Note: MySQL and SQL Server do not use this optimization due to insignificant performance differences before and
after the improvement.
For more information see [MDL-78030](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-78030)
- The `after_config()` callback has been converted to a hook, `\core\hook\after_config`.
For more information see [MDL-79011](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-79011)
- The `\core\output\select_menu` widget now supports rendering dividers between menu options. Empty elements (null or empty strings) within the array of options are considered and rendered as dividers in the dropdown menu.
For more information see [MDL-80747](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-80747)
- The `core\output\select_menu` widget now supports a new feature: inline labels. You can render the label inside the combobox widget by passing `true` to the `$inlinelabel` parameter when calling the `->set_label()` method.
For more information see [MDL-80747](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-80747)
- A new hook called `core\hook\output\after_http_headers` has been created. This hook allow plugins to modify the content after headers are sent.
For more information see [MDL-80890](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-80890)

Existing classes are currently unaffected.

For more information see [MDL-81282](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-81282)
- The function `update_display_mode` will update the eye icon (enabled/disabled) in the availability. The `$pluginname` is represented to the plugin need to update. The `$displaymode` is represented to the eye icon. Whether it enabled or disabled.
For more information see [MDL-81533](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-81533)
- Added an `exception` L2 Namespace to APIs
For more information see [MDL-81903](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-81903)
- Added a mechanism to support autoloading of legacy class files.
This will help to reduce the number of `require_once` calls in the codebase, and move away from the use of monolithic libraries.

For more information see [MDL-82427](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-82427)
### core_form
#### Added
- Previously, the `duration` form field type would allow users to input positive or negative durations. However looking at all the uses, everyone was expecting this input type to only accept `times >= 0` seconds, and almost no-one was bothering to write manual form validation, leading to subtle bugs. So now, by default this field type will validate the input value is not negative. If you need the previous behaviour, there is a new option `allownegative` which you can set to true. (The default is false.)

For more information see [MDL-81321](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-81321)
### mod_feedback
#### Deprecated
- The `feedback_check_is_switchrole` method has been deprecated as it didn't work
For more information see [MDL-72424](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-72424)
- The method `mod_feedback\output\renderer::create_template_form()` has been deprecated. It is not used anymore.

### output
#### Added
- Added a new `renderer_base::get_page` getter method
For more information see [MDL-81597](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-81597)
### qbank_managecategories
#### Changed
- The methods in the `question_category_object` class that are still required following this change have been split between `\qbank_managecategories\question_categories` (for the parts used within this plugin for display a list of categories) and `\core_question\category_manager` (for the parts used for generate CRUD operations on question categories, including outside of this plugin). This will allow `question_category_object` to be deprecated, and avoids other parts of the system wishing to manipulate question categories from having to violate cross-component communication rules.
For more information see [MDL-72397](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-72397)
#### Deprecated
- Category lists are now generated by templates. The following classes have been deprecated:
- `question_category_list`
- `question_category_list_item`
For more information see [MDL-72397](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-72397)
- The methods `question_is_only_child_of_top_category_in_context`, `question_is_top_category` and `question_can_delete_cat` from `qbank_managecategories\helper` class have been deprecated and moved to the `\core_question\category_manager` class, minus the misleading `question_` prefix. Following the creation of this class, it does not make sense for them to live inside the `qbank_managecategories` plugin.
For more information see [MDL-72397](https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-72397)
- `qbank_managecategories\question_category_object` is now completely deprecated. Its methods have either been migrated to `qbank_managecategories\question_categories`, `core_question\category_manager`, or are no longer used at all.
