New option on Administration -> Server -> Debugging called
'Show origin of languages strings' ($CFG->debugstringids).
If this is set, get_string will add the name of the lang file and the id of the string
to each string it gets, so instead of returning 'No', it will return '{No admin/checkboxno}'.
The custom-corners-specific code now in theme/customcornser/renderers.php
and lib/deprecatedlib.php.
Also, $CFG->pixpath is now causing more problems than ever. If it is
giving your problems, please call $OUTPUT->initialise_deprecated_cfg_pixpath()
as a temporary fix. As you can imagine, we are thinking about a better
long-term fix, which is why that method as a silly, and easy to grep name.
Various functions were catching the pdo error and returning
false, but this isn't enough. I have modified the functions to
throw a dml exception like other drivers do.
- Include 'pdo' as an extension to be checked for
- Bail out of a connect and throw an exception if the required
extensions aren't loaded
- Don't ignore pdo exceptions on connect error - throw our
own exception
By changing the behaviour of the recordset to match
the native recordset we fix the major compatbility problems
Before: Can't get a working install to run tests
After: 353 passes, 10 fails and 0 exceptions.
(and moodle can install on my iphone)
Also, part of the change from weblib.php functions to $OUTPUT-> methods.
This is part of http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:Theme_engines_for_Moodle%3F
This is a big change, and the result is not perfect yet. Expect some debugging output
on some pages.
The main part of these changes are that $OUTPUT->header now looks for a file
in the theme called layout.php, rather than header.html and footer.html. Also
you can have special templates for certain pages like layout-home.php. There is
fallback code for Moodle 1.9 themes, so they still work.
A few of the old arguments to print_header are no longer supported. (You get an
exception if you try to use them.) Sam H will be cleaning those up.
All the weblib functions that have been replaced with $OUTPUT-> have version in
deprecatedlib, so existing code will go on working for the foreseeable future.
