Hi Jerome,
The patch looks good in general. Here are a few couple of things you might want to consider:-

  1. there is no point in calling $modinfosections = $modinfo->get_sections(); repeatedly, it should be moved out of foreach loop.
  2. It might be a good idea to not to escape the activity url. (get_url->out(false)).

Thanks

I've done the changes requested by Ankit. Note that only 2.5 got the url escaping change.
This change deserve to be indicated in API change Moodledocs as it could break some clients (even though I don't think it does, at least it doesn't break the official client).

If this url escaping change is accepted/integrated then I'll add the API doc change.

Tested on 2.5 (by the app) and 2.3 (with the REST sample client).

Thank you.

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

Note - posting diff url (24) ignoring whitespace because it's much clearer:

https://github.com/mouneyrac/moodle/compare/moodle:MOODLE_24_STABLE...MDL-30775-24?w=1

This patch could have only been 4 lines if you used continue - I am not a fan of deeply nested if statements.

Hi Jerome,

Can you confirm that you meant to change the escaping for the icon_url in the stable branches? (The above diff url shows it clearly).

Ok I made the change except the continue that I don't agree (I find it more confusing to have continue everywhere)

Thanks! You're changes are now spread to the world through this git and our source control repositories.

No time to rest though, we've got days to make 2.5 the best yet!

ciao
