* Seems like an opportune time to introduce "@addtogroup Media" documentation tags.
* Merge "@addtogroup Metadata" (used by Exif.php) into "@addtogroup Media".
* Few more moving comment blocks to above classes.
* Deprecated $wgUseImageResize, thumbnailing will be enabled unconditionally.
* Fixed interaction of page parameter to ImagePage with the HTML file cache
* Improved error reporting for image thumbnailing
* Fixed MIME type for SVG files, will be silently changed from image/svg to image/svg+xml after loading from the database.
* Workaround for djvutoxml bug #1704049 (poor performance). Use djvudump instead.
* Fixed odd behaviour in ImagePage on DjVu thumbnailing errors
* Improved error reporting for image thumbnailing
* Added sharpening option for ImageMagick thumbnailing
* Removed Image::selectPage(), added page parameters to getWidth() and getHeight(), deprecated Image::renderThumb() and Image::getThumbnail()
* Changed default contents of img_metadata to empty string instead of a:0:{}
* Moved responsibility for respecting $wgGenerateThumbnailOnParse from the UI to Image.php
* Specify output type in ImageMagick SVG rendering command line
* Make some Image functions static, for the benefit of WebStore.
* Fixed SVG MIME type, will be image/svg+xml from now on with both accepted.
The mid-level functions in Image now fail gracefully on bogus data, as happens when the djvutoxml executable is missing.
Removed the bogus exception check in ImagePage high-level code (which actually just causes a fatal error by calling a nonexistent method :)
Also changed Image::initializeMultiPageXML to do clean lazy loading as Image::load does, and to return true/false as to success/failure for cleaner code using it.
* Convert "$dbw =& wfGetDB( DB_MASTER );" --> "$dbw = wfGetDB( DB_MASTER );"
* convert "$skin =& $wgUser->getSkin();" --> "$skin = $wgUser->getSkin();"
For the time being have not changed the function definitions of wfGetDB() or User::getSkin() [i.e. they are still both return-by-ref], so as to ensure the interface does not change for extensions [some of which may still be trying to run on PHP4 environments]. However presumably at some point this can be changed too.
Also includes tiny tweak to newlines in parserTests - will show 1 rather than 2 newlines between the "Reading tests from" strings when in quiet mode.
* removing unused local vars
* removing used global declarations
* adding FIXMEs against extract() calls and lines that seem to be using uninitialized variables
* adding some array() declarations.
* removing some unused global declarations.
* removing or commenting out or adding comments for unused local vars.
* Adding one or two local var declarations.
* Declaring $matches array passed to preg_match() / preg_match_all() as array() before using [not required, just have a slight preference for the explicitness].
* remove one or two pass-by-reference function declarations where the value is not modified.
* Adding some braces to if-else blocks.
* In Parser.php, stripstrate is now an object rather than an array as per r17820, so we no longer need ask for a reference to it (as in "$x =& $this->mStripState;"), and in fact it's probably just simpler to get rid of $x altogether.
* Moving some preg regexes from "" quoting to '' quoting to stop static analyzer whinging about bad escape sequences.
... up to "LinksUpdate.php" in the includes/ directory.
* Deleted DatabaseMysql.php, no longer necessary, database classes are autoloaded.
* Moved wfGetMimeMagic() to MimeMagic::singleton()
* Fixed a couple of __CLASS__.'::'.__FUNCTION__ things.
* remove require_once() throughout whole code, yet left in few places
* move global functions in HttpUtils, ProxyTools, Credits to class methods
* php5 only: __autoload() now used, combined with class->file map and require()
* move initialization of $wgValidSkinNames to Skin::getSkinNames()
* few more changes that will surely break stuff.
You can now feed both local relative URLs and fully-qualified URLs to the
squid purge functions; local URLs will have $wgInternalServer prepended
if needed. This avoids the broken URLs produced by other functions prepending
it when it wasn't always needed.
