This has been generated running the following Sniffs, all
them part of the Moodle's CodeSniffer standard:
- PSR12.Functions.ReturnTypeDeclaration
- PSR12.Functions.NullableTypeDeclaration
- moodle.Methods.MethodDeclarationSpacing
- Squiz.Whitespace.ScopeKeywordSpacing
All them are, exclusively, about correct spacing, so the changes
are, all them, only white space changes.
Only exceptions to the above are 3 changes what were setting the
return type in a new line, and, when that happens, the closing
parenthesis (bracket) has to go to the same line than the colon.
In PHP 8.2 and later, setting a value to an undeclared class property is
deprecated and emits a deprecation notice.
So we need to add missing class properties that still need to be declared.
Completely remove all uses if the xmlrpc php extension in
the client and replace them by the phpxmlrpc library.
Very noticeably, remove all the uses of the curl extension
and use phpxmlrpc own curl support.
Working ok for moodle-moodle/mahara sso and mahara portfolio export.
Since php80 the 5th parameter (cypher) in the following functions:
- openssl_seal
- openssl_open
is mandatory, hence:
- adding it.
- with value 'RC4' to keep BC.
dirname() is a slow function compared with __DIR__ and using
'/../'. Moodle has a large number of legacy files that are included
each time a page loads and is not able to use an autoloader as it is
functional code. This allows those required includes to perform as
best as possible in this situation.
This patch replace all usages of HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA that was deprecated on PHP 5.6 by
file_get_contents('php://input'). Only the TinyMCE library has not been updated.
- The way that mnet rpc functions are registered. Plugins must now
create db/mnet.php which is an array, similar to services.php. This
*replaces* the old mnet_publishes() functions. version.php must be
bumped to trigger this.
- More information about each rpc-available function is stored in the
database, including the class it belongs to, the file it is found in,
and whether or not it is static. Methods that are not static must be
in a class with a constructor that takes no arguments (this can easily
be achieved with a small wrapper if necessary)
- The xmlrpc dispatcher has been rewritten to remove all the
dependencies on hardcoded information about auth,mnet,portfolio and
repository, and just use the information in the database.
- The old hardcoded hidden mnet/testclient.php has been moved to the
Admin menu under "Development" and rewritten.
- The xmlrpc introspection method profiling is now using php and zend
reflection - which is a lot nicer than the old way, which was using a
php-based php parser. This fixes some inconsistent handling of
methods without arguments that were advertising their return value as
the only method parameter. While this is a *fix*, it breaks BC
slightly - the old 1.9 broken mnet/testclient.php will now not work
properly with 2.0
- Dangerous mode is still supported, but old mod/*/rpclib.php is
now unsupported, due to the fact that any plugin can export mnet
functions with db/mnet.php. This is a slight BC break.
Still TODO:
- TEST TEST TEST
- Document the two small BC breaks in release notes
- Document the contract for db/mnet.php
Better defined what the decrypt / signature functions do & brought a lot of the error-exits together

Ignore logic flow so that errors are dealt with first
