rather than relying on return values (send_package and prepare_package)
move zipping of temporary files into the exporter class so it can be overridden during unit tests
fix a small todo in mahara plugin
added two new contract methods to the caller class, load_data and expected_callbackargs (static)
this means that the base class is the only place that needs a constructor
and that no data loading happens in the constructor
this in turn means we can check callback argument validity much more lightly
also completely remoted portfolio_add_button function and replaced with a class
as the argument list was getting out of control. it's now much more readable.
If cron hasn't run for a few days, it would take
several runs for chat_update_chat_times() to get things back on track.
Now it's all fixed in one go, saving a bit of DB traffic. It all adds
up...
Delete stale msgs in one DB query rather than in 1-per-chat-instance.
(From 600 DB queries to 1 on a site with 600 chat instances.)
Also - a walkthrough of chat_update_chat_times(), which seems buggy.
Fix for MDL-8515: Prefixing chat messages with a slash should not hide the
user's name unless it's a special command we handle.
I completely removed the emoticon handling case, but it seems like it was
not needed for a long time now? Emoticons work just fine without it.
MDL-7962 chat seems to be completely broken in head (fixed wrong JS)
* reworked chat themes support
MDL-8338 Cron does not need cookies
MDL-8339 forum cron capabilities problems
* minor deprecated function current_encoding() cleanup
+ improved print_user_picture() to allow images with empty alt to prevent repetitive reading of usernames in jaws when username is printed next to avatar
- new gui_basic that can be used as fallback or accessible option to gui_header_js - it is not compatible with chat daemon
- todo: CSS styling, beeping, JS fallback code in view.php and noframes fallback in gui_header_js
- minor changes in messaging language strings
- minor coding style improvements
The API was changed slightly so that has_capability now takes the
whole $context object (we almost always have it anyway)
The $kill thing was removed. If you want to assert a capability
then use:
require_capability('capname', $context);
with optional variables to modify the error message
Misc bugs here and there also removed and code tidied
=======================================
WARNING: DEV IS CURRENTLY VERY UNSTABLE.
This is a mega-checkin of the new Roles system. A lot of changes have
been made in core and modules.
Currently there are a lot of rough edges and known problems. We are
working hard on these .. .the reason for getting this into HEAD at this
stage is enable us to move faster (our branch was diverging from HEAD
too much).
Please keep an eye on http://docs.moodle.org/en/Roles for current status
and information for developers on how to use the new Roles system.
