        • Resolution: Fixed
        • Affects Version/s: 2.1.4, 2.2.1, 2.3
        • Fix Version/s: None
        • Component/s: Events API
        • Testing Instructions:
          Hide

          Create an activity module. Check no errors or warnings are generated.

          Edit an activity module's settings. Check no errors or warnings are generated.

          Moodle core doesn't actually consume the events it generates so the event generation cannot really be tested without writing additional code (http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Events_API).

          Description

          The event is basically called before some grade stuff and before the course cache has been rebuilt. To avoid having to do some trickery or rebuilding the course cache twice, just move the event triggers lower in the code. At the very least, this is now less code

            Thanks for that Mark. I've created a branch containing a slightly modified version of your patch.

            Looks good thanks Andrew, backport and up for integration.

            Only thing I noted is that you don't need to initialise $eventname as an empty string. I don't think we will ever add another if...else to that branch though so not an essential to remove it.

            Cheers
            Sam

            Created the various branches.

            Initializing variables outside of if else structures is a habit from C+. In C+ a variable defined within an if goes out of scope when you leave the if. Variables defined inside an if and used outside of it still look wrong to me.

            The main moodle.git repository has just been updated with latest weekly modifications. You may wish to rebase your PULL branches to simplify history and avoid any possible merge conflicts. This would also make integrator's life easier next week.

            TIA and ciao
