Applying filters on an activity module description when using it as a new calendar event's description is bad m'kay? We need to store the raw text and apply the filters only when we actually display the text. That way, filters (such as multi-language content) may actually fully work and we do not initialise the theme and output machinery. Additionally, we need to explicitly set the format of the description text to HTML (because we have converted it to it already). Otherwise it defaults to the current user's preferred editor format. This is still a pragmatic hot-fix solution. The proper solution would be to pass the raw text, format and embedded files.
ACTIVITY MODULES
----------------
These are main modules in Moodle, allowing various activities.
Each of these modules contains a number of expected components:
mod_form.php: a form to setup/update a module instance
version.php: defines some meta-info and provides upgrading code
pix/icon.gif: a 16x16 icon for the module
db/install.xml: an SQL dump of all the required db tables and data
index.php: a page to list all instances in a course
view.php: a page to view a particular instance
lib.php: any/all functions defined by the module should be in here.
constants should be defined using MODULENAME_xxxxxx
functions should be defined using modulename_xxxxxx
There are a number of standard functions:
modulename_add_instance()
modulename_update_instance()
modulename_delete_instance()
modulename_user_complete()
modulename_user_outline()
modulename_cron()
modulename_print_recent_activity()
