Fixed longtimenosee unenrolments.  user_lastaccess and role_assignments were growing with uneccessary entries, to the point where memory limits were reached and in the end NO unenrolments were happening at all.

See  MDL-11571

admin/cron: move accesslib stuff to occasional cleanups, add build_context_path()

The accesslib cleanups aren't needed every 5. Also, add
build_context_path() and instructions on how to run it

Restoring changes all the changes in MOODLE_16_STABLE since MOODLE_16_BETA.

This had to be done because the MOODLE_16_STABLE branch tags were moved.

Hopefully after this MOODLE_16_STABLE will be back to how it was (and a
proper branch) but some of the history may look a bit odd.

See MDL-9032 for more discussion and details.

[multienrol]Initial commit for multi enrolment plugin feature

Added cron support for blocks - it was already there in the tables, now we just need to use it

admin/uploaduser fixes and enhancements

Several fixes and enhancements:

 + No longer fail due to timeouts or memory limits. And let apache know
   that we're a memory hog so it can clean up after us.

 + Add support for user account updates (optional)

 + Add support for user account renames (optional)

 + Cleaned up the logic that deals with creation and failure

 + More robust error handling

 + Use optional_param() -- no longer depends on register_globals
   -- when do we switch that off?

 + Added the relevant documentation.

User uploads allow missing password

User upload now has an option to allow missing passwords to be accepted -
if we have an email field available. Cron will pick up those users, and call
setnew_password_and_mail() for them.

Effective way to spam your way through life...

Force to destroy the php session. Without this, some buggy PHP versions

Hook for enrolment cron jobs

Now make_upload_directory() is used, avoiding dependencies to
backup/lib.php. I think that, gradually, I'll can modify the
backup/restore process to use this "core" function everywhere!!
Bug 1467.
(http://moodle.org/bugs/bug.php?op=show&bugid=1467)

RSS requires backup/lib.php currently ... Eloy, see bug 1467  :-)

Supress errors on set_time_limit() for servers with safe mode restrictions

A fix from boman in bug 1421 that allows the script to be
run from anywhere on the command line in PHP > 4.3.0.

ie:

   php /some/dir/moodle/admin/php.php

   ... now works again

First version of RSS System.
Discussion and post forum feeds supported.
Integrated in cron system.
Some strings missing.
Test, test, test...

Now the scheduled_backup needs lib/blocklib.php to be able to
backup & restore blocks configuration. Done!!

Even safer implementation of the temporary $USER variable

Better checking of admin user stuff

Unset $USER variable

Whoops!  Just realised I never fully finished the deleteunconfirmed
feature!   All done now.

$CFG->deleteunconfirmed can be used to specify the time period
within which a user must confirm by email  (default is still 7 days)

Fixed table name

Delete old cached texts on a cleanup

Changed the name of $CFG->preventscheduledbackups to disablescheduledbackups

A setting $CFG->preventscheduledbackups will prevent scheduled backups
completely.

Run cron.php as admin user so timezones etc work

Flush it

Output the time in the cron output

max_execution_time and memory_limit to allow backup of large installations.
(I've executed it with 50 courses)

No functional change, just me being a fussy Moodler

Little change to inform in standard output.

Included call to backup's cron function (not implemented).

If a file called cronextra.php exists in the dataroot then cron will
run that too.  This allows sites to have "special" maintenance.

Use the new fullname function

Get longtimenosee students according to their course access (not site access)

Add a message to help debugging

Improved cron jobs for central clean up tasks.

 - there is now a randomiser so that these jobs are only run 20% of the time

 - duplicate enrolments are now cleaned up.

Don't throw errors when deleting old logs and unsent mail

Moved microtime_diff() to moodlelib

Delete old logs is required

Reverted to older version, those changes should never got to CVS.

Added support for usercreation from Moodle to authentication module.
Works currently only with ldap-module (tested with e-directory), but
 other modules could be extended too by
adding following functions:

function auth_user_exists ($username) {
//returns true if given username  already exists on authetication database
}

function auth_user_create ($userobject,$plainpass) {
//create new user to authentication database
//in inactive state (if posible)
//returns true if user is created
}
function auth_user_activate ($username) {
//activate external user  after email-address is confirmed
//returns true if user is activated
}

Add some timing

Clean sweep through all the important changing all include(), include_once()
and require() to require_once()

Many many changes lumped in here ... not finished yet either.

Basically all the Database functions are in lib/datalib.php
and the web functions are all in lib/weblib.php, so
moodlelib.php is much thinner than it was.

Data functions have been extended ... most old calls will
still work, but now many more SQL commands can be performed
using the datalib functions rather than using SQL.  I'm
currently moving through the whole tree replacing SQL
calls or at least concentrating them in one section of
mod/xxx/lib.php

Still working on forums, quizzes, surveys, resources.

The tree is currently not full working ... some things are
half-completed ... will resume tomorrow.

Preset the FULLME variable

Fixes to unenrolling students,  and unenrol_student() and remove_teacher()
now remove forum_subscriptions correctly

Bugfix for unenrolling old users

Needed to delete forum_subscriptions as well.

More efficiency when deleting enrolments

Cron tidy-ups

Code to unenrol old students and delete unconfirmed users

Much better cron function method - instead of using a code fragment in
mod/cron.php, it now uses a function in mod/lib.php ... more contained

Removed password ... it's not necessary any more.

Removed some logging

Now uses $CFG->cronpassword from config.php

Improvements to the process of setting up Moodle the first time, also better interface for adding/removing teachers
