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).
- No longer use the Fibonacci sequence for delaying the timeout.
It is too aggressive.
- The backoff_timer AMD module now expects the callback AND the
backoff function to be passed to the constructor.
- Added ability to specify polling frequency in config.php.
- Added helper function to return the cache key.
- Reworded the parameters for clarity.
1. getMock()
2. setExpectedException()
3. checkForUnintentionallyCoveredCode renamed to beStrictAboutCoversAnnotation
4. beStrictAboutTestSize renamed to enforceTimeLimit
5. UnitTestCase class is now fully removed.
When code executed in test cases is using/preventing
database transactions, phpunit itself cannot
use transactions for reseting between cases. But we
can tell it about, so some alternative (and slower)
method for reseting will be used.
