This resolves problems when installing Moodle
and addons when preventexecpath active.
Please note the admin_setting_configfile is still
incorrectly restricted - this will be resolved by
MDL-40949.
When the destination draft area existed and the user draft area has not
been used, and thus does not exist, an error was displayed to the user
saying that they could not save the setting.
This was intended to handle the cases where the draft area disappears
and would overwrite the content of the destination area, deleting
all its content. But now we do not prompt with an error when
overwriting empty with empty.
Centralise management of all types of cron tasks with registration, scheduling,
parallel task conflicts(blocking) and running once off tasks, all using an
administration screen.
This is a combination of several issues:
MDL-25502: Added "black magic" task allocator for cron
MDL-25503: Add step to cron to run all scheduled tasks
MDL-25504 cron: Refactor to use scheduler
MDL-25505: Add an admin interface to schedule tasks via cron.
MDL-25507: Add support for adhoc tasks.
Includes following fixes:
* support for MS SQL Server
* optional trimming of of oversized VARCHAR fields
* conversion to forms library
* full localisation
* other cleanup
Includes:
* update checker refactored to \core\update\ namespace
* plugininfo classes refactored to \core\plugininfo\ namespace
* plugin_manager renamed to core_plugin_manager
* redirect back to original page after plugin uninstall
* fixed assign subplugin uninstall
* move assign subplugins under the assignment in admin tree
* fixed plugininfo for all question related plugin types
* auth uninstall support
* added missing block dependencies
* added theme uninstall
* subplugin types are following the plugin on plugin overview page
* several performance improvements in plugin manager
* new warnigns when plugininfo are outdated or missing
* multiple fixes and other improvements
This patch prevents inclusion of settings from plugin that or not yet installed or upgraded,
this matches the original logic where we were using the modules table.
This patch includes:
* version column removed from modules table, now using standard config, this allows decimal version for modules
* version column removed from block table, now using standard config, this allows decimal version for blocks
* module version.php can safely use $plugins instead of module
* new plugin_manager bulk caching, this should help with MUC performance when logged in as admin
* all missing plugins are now in plugin overview (previously only blocks and modules)
* simplified code and improved coding style
* reworked plugin_manager unit tests - now using real plugins instead of mocks
* unit tests now fail if any plugin does not contain proper version.php file
* allow uninstall of deleted filters
Includes rework of cache parameter detection on admin/index.php.
Another problem is that uninstall does not leave system in consistent state,
we need to force users to go through upgrade after any type of uninstall.
This fixes also add-on installation redirect and other issues.
