Make indexing of user messages tolerant to user deletion.
When creating the search document for user messages,
add a check to see if the user has been deleted in the
system. If they have been deleted abort creating the search
document.
This is to avoid rasining an error when trying to get the
user context for a deleted user.
If there was no conversation found and the method returned early, the
active transaction was not marked as committable and the error was
reported by the request shutdown handler.
Attaching a unit test for the case just because it did not seem to be
covered. I was trying to reproduce the thrown error in the unit test but
it can't be used in this case. The shutdown handler puts the warning
directly into the error_log and it is not guaranteed where such messages
go (depending on the PHP configuration). And we do not even raise it
during the unit test execution (presumably due to noise it would
produce) anyway.
This is the whole point of this UI - make it the default action after
searching and selecting a user. You can still get to their profile by
clicking their name in the header of the messaging pane.
- 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.
Instead of silently defaulting to SITEID when courseid (coming
from message_send()/\core\message\manager::send_message()) is missing,
now a debugging message is shown to allow developers to fix their
messages to, always, include courseid.
Raw creation of events via message_sent::create() missing other[courseid]
leads to coding exception since now (there shouldn't be any legacy use, as far as
they are always created via create_from_ids() when sending a message.
Updated upgrade.txt notes a little bit, added references the 3.6 final
deprecation issue (MDL-55449) and covered with unit tests.
Also -
1) Made note of the deprecation as well as the functions and
files that were removed earlier in upgrade.txt.
2) Added new functions to api.php to replace the deprecated ones
that were being used in unit tests.
3) Removed files that are no longer being used.
