- Part of: MDL-69588
Some pages have added an item to the end of the navbar without a
link for it. This adds the current page as a url to this navigation
node. Doing this brings it in line with all of the other pages
around Moodle and also helps with the new navigation changes in
theme boost.
This was visible when, for example, unusual role definitions meant that someone could access a forum without being enrolled in a course.
Note that one of the places that was previously broken was front page forums. Since subscribers.php does not do paging at all, the fact that I have fixed this bug makes this page dangerous on large sites. A proper solution will have to wait until bug 17550 is fixed in HEAD.
This also fixes a minor problem introduced by MDL-12979.
This check-in removes about 400 lines of code. I hope I have not screwed anything up. I would be grateful if people could review this change, and keep an eye on the navigation bar in modules.
Any navigation bar bugs you find in the near future, feel free to file them in the tracker and assign them to me. Thanks.
If not to many problems are found, I think I would like to backport this to 1.9 stable, but I am not sure that is a good idea. Opinions to the General Developer Forum please. I am about to start a thread there.
- Removed $course parameter from build_navigation()
- Updated all calls to build_navigation()

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.
