Previously, this function used variable arguments to allow
different hooks to pass different parameters. However, var args
silently convert reference-calling to value-calling. So a call
that used to work like this:
# old
wfRunHooks('SomeEvent', $param1, &$param2, $param3);
...now works like this:
# new
wfRunHooks('SomeEvent', array($param1, &$param2, $param3));
Hook functions can now change pass-by-reference parameters correctly
(e.g. $param2 in the above example).
All calls to wfRunHooks() were changed and tested, and the change
was documented in docs/hooks.doc. This change was originally checked
in on REL1_4 branch as a bugfix, but per vibber reverted and checked
in to HEAD instead.
(syslog). Although intended to be useful, it's more of a testbed for
event hooks than anything else. For a first pass, started logging user
login and user logout events. Had to add hooks-running code to the
login and logout modules, but that's kind of the point. Documented the
three events added in hooks.doc.
instead of -- MediaWiki code for particular events (article rollback,
user ban, etc.). Framework is in place; hooks are not yet in place
in the mainline code.
