Also deprecated the following functions -
1. message_move_userfrom_unread2read - It is not necessary
for us to mark a message as read on user deletion.
2. message_get_blocked_users - Horrible logic used to
determine if a user is blocked via reference on some
randomly chosen 'isblocked' variable.
3. message_get_contacts - The same as above. This can be
done in a much nicer way.
4. message_mark_message_read - We want two functions to do
this to avoid confusing messages and notifications.
5. message_can_delete_message - This assumed the variable
$message contained the 'useridto' property, which
was present in the old table structure. We do not want
future usages where a query is done on the new table
and is simply passed as this won't contain this property.
6. message_delete_message - Same as above.
The new recordset support for Postgres requires transactions and
will cause errors if recordsets are not closed correctly. This
commit fixes problems that were identified during unit tests, and
via some basic code analysis, across all core code. Most of these
are incorrect usage of recordset (forgetting to close them).
Instead of silently defaulting to SITEID when courseid (coming
from message_send()/\core\message\manager::send_message()) is missing,
now a debugging message is shown to allow developers to fix their
messages to, always, include courseid.
Raw creation of events via message_sent::create() missing other[courseid]
leads to coding exception since now (there shouldn't be any legacy use, as far as
they are always created via create_from_ids() when sending a message.
Updated upgrade.txt notes a little bit, added references the 3.6 final
deprecation issue (MDL-55449) and covered with unit tests.
Too many lines were being removed for GMail senders. The function was
also removed because it is no longer used, and guessing the client
and cutting accordingly is a poor approach and will probably lead
to issues similar to this one.
This patch includes following fixes:
- messages may be now sent when database transactions active
- consistent return status on failure from message_send(), false is
returned only when message not created in message(_read)? table,
processor failure results in debugging message only and messages
are not marked as read
- message_sent is triggered always with id from message table
- logic for marking messages as viewed was standardised
- message_viewed event is triggered consistently
- improved performance when fetching user preferences
- full unit tests coverage for send_message() function
- fixed multiple other smaller issues discovered by unit tests
