As a precursor to deprecating M.util.show_confirm, this deprecates the
callback argment to the confirm_action class.
This is not currently used anywhere in core, and it's use leads to use of
eval in Javascript.
This locking system is designed to be used everywhere requiring
locking in Moodle. Each use of the locking system can be configured
to use a different type of locking (or the same type with a different
configuration).
The first supported lock types are memcache, memcached, file (flock),
db (specific handlers for pg, mysql and mariadb).
Includes:
* each plugin has own thirdpartylibs.xml file
* added missing libraries
* fixed existing library infos
* new Site administration / Development / Third party libraries page
A new packer for .tar.gz files (MIME type application/x-gzip) has been
implemented, including unit tests.
This packer is intended for use during backup/restore only and is not
otherwise exposed in the user interface at present. However, it is
supposed to follow the (ancient) POSIX .tar standard; files created
with this packer will open in GNU tar.
There are restrictions in support corresponding to the POSIX standard:
- Non-ASCII filenames are not supported.
- Very long file/path names are not supported.
- Individual files within the .tar may not be more than 8GB.
Some of these limitations might need to be addressed in future changes
if the packer were to be used in areas other than backup/restore.
Includes:
* update checker refactored to \core\update\ namespace
* plugininfo classes refactored to \core\plugininfo\ namespace
* plugin_manager renamed to core_plugin_manager
* redirect back to original page after plugin uninstall
* fixed assign subplugin uninstall
* move assign subplugins under the assignment in admin tree
* fixed plugininfo for all question related plugin types
* auth uninstall support
* added missing block dependencies
* added theme uninstall
* subplugin types are following the plugin on plugin overview page
* several performance improvements in plugin manager
* new warnigns when plugininfo are outdated or missing
* multiple fixes and other improvements
Too many functions, too different parameters, unnecessary DB queries.
All repositories developed for Moodle 2.3-2.5 will continue to work.
Also get rid of DB field files_reference.lifetime, it is not used by
anybody except repository itself.
* Added new constant: MOD_SUBTYPE_NO_CHILDREN
* When MOD_SUBTYPE_NO_CHILDREN is returned from xxx_get_types()
then default display is used for activity chooser.
* Updated mod/upgrade.txt
* Removed dead code from navigationlib.php instead of updating
it for new behavior of xxx_get_types
* Updated lib/upgrade.txt
This patch includes:
* version column removed from modules table, now using standard config, this allows decimal version for modules
* version column removed from block table, now using standard config, this allows decimal version for blocks
* module version.php can safely use $plugins instead of module
* new plugin_manager bulk caching, this should help with MUC performance when logged in as admin
* all missing plugins are now in plugin overview (previously only blocks and modules)
* simplified code and improved coding style
* reworked plugin_manager unit tests - now using real plugins instead of mocks
* unit tests now fail if any plugin does not contain proper version.php file
* allow uninstall of deleted filters
List of changes:
* New OOP API using PHP namespace \core\session\.
* All handlers now update the sessions table consistently.
* Experimental DB session support in Oracle.
* Full support for session file handler (filesystem locking required).
* New option for alternative session directory.
* Official memcached session handler support.
* Workaround for memcached version with non-functional gc.
* Improved security - forced session id regeneration.
* Improved compatibility with recent PHP releases.
* Fixed borked CSS during install in debug mode.
* Switched to file based sessions in new installs.
* DB session setting disappears if DB does not support sessions.
* DB session setting disappears if session handler specified in config.php.
* Fast purging of sessions used in request only.
* No legacy distinction - file, database and memcached support the same functionality.
* Session handler name included in performance info.
* Fixed user_loggedin and user_loggedout event triggering.
* Other minor bugfixing and improvements.
* Fixed database session segfault if MUC disposed before $DB.
Limitations:
* Session access time is now updated right after session start.
* Support for $CFG->sessionlockloggedinonly was removed.
* First request does not update userid in sessions table.
* The timeouts may break badly if server hosting forces PHP.ini session settings.
* The session GC is a lot slower, we do not rely on external session timeouts.
* There cannot be any hooks triggered at the session write time.
* File and memcached handlers do not support session lock acquire timeouts.
* Some low level PHP session functions can not be used directly in Moodle code.
The PHP readfile function does not work for files more than 2GB.
This commit provides a wrapper that can be used so that files less
than 2GB are sent with readfile, and files larger than 2GB are
sent manually.
The change applies to all uses of pluginfile.php, although in
reality, backup files are probably the only ones likely to be more
than two gigabytes.
This is used by messaging system for sending/receiving message
to/from noreply or support user. message_send api will now use
core_user class to get noreply or support user and then
send/receive message depending on user state.
