The native rename() function does not support moving folders
cross-device. See https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54097 for details. So
instead of trying to move the whole tree, the new installer's method
moves files recursively one by one.
This is consistent with what mdeploy.php already does.
Non-standard means php.ini was set to something not in the default list (like 7MB),
then the config was saved to that specific value, and now the value in php.ini has been changed
again so 7MB does not appear in the list.
This should resolve all problem on developer machines when switching branches or when restoring previous Moodle databases. It also prevents any potential problems during upgrades such as concurrent DB modification and resolves chicken egg problems in future caching upgrades.
This is necessary because PHP in Windows does not have any certificates and some *nix systems have outdated or missing ca bundles too.
The order is:
1/ dataroot/moodleorgca.crt always wins - needs to be added manually by admin
2/ php.ini setting "curl.cainfo" is next
3/ on Windows libdir/cacert.pem is used because it does not have any default cert bundles
4/ system default is the last - the previous value, ok for properly configured *nix systems
The method available_update_deployer::make_execution_widget() used to
have hard-coded return URL. Now it accepts the return URL as the second
parameter and passes it to the mdeploy.php utility.
The callerurl parameter is now correctly passed and used.
Plugins that are to be installed and plugins that are missing from disk
are now highlighted at the Plugins overview screen. Other statuses (such as
of plugin to be upgraded) should not be needed at this page as those
are primarily intended for the Plugins checks screen during the upgrade.
- 'List of courses' is split into 'List of courses' (available) and 'Enrolled courses', CFG->disablemycourses is deprecated;
- CFG->frontpageloggedin by default shows list of available courses;
- There is separate item to display course search box
- CFG->maxcoursesincombo is deprecated
- CFG->maxcategorydepth changed default value to 2 since we have AJAX loading now
- FRONTPAGECOURSELIMIT is transformed to CFG->frontpagecourselimit

This is much better API than using the array passed by reference. At the
moment, it is pretty hacky as it abuses text_progress_trace to output
raw HTML echoed by uninstall_plugin() but that will be improved later
while moving the logic out of that function into the plugin_manager.
As suggested by Tim Hunt during the peer-review, rendering methods
should not set properties of the page they are producing HTML code for.
Additionally, the page now uses correct check that the uninstalling can
happen.
This patch returns the layout of the Uninstall | Settings links to two
columns. There is no space saved on the screen by using the single
column and two columns align better. The reasoning for using single
column was that there would be multiple links in the 'Actions' column
but that does not seem to happen anytime soon.
The get_uninstall_url() method of all subclasses of plugininfo_base
class is now expected to always return moodle_url. Subclasses can use
the new method is_uninstall_allowed() to control the availability of the
'Uninstall' link at the Plugins overview page (previously they would do
it by get_uninstall_url() returning null). By default, URL to a new
general plugin uninstall tool is returned. Unless the plugin type needs
extra steps that can't be handled by plugininfo_xxx::uninstall() method
or xmldb_xxx_uninstall() function, this default URL should satisfy all
plugin types.
The overall logic is implemented in plugin_manager::can_install_plugin()
that respects the plugininfo class decision and vetoes it in certain
cases (typically when plugin or its subplugin is required by some other
plugin).
