However we have begun to use field_exists() within other parts of the code and so this can get called on every page load by multiple users at once. This requires fetching the ddl.lib file and setting ul an XMLDB table object and an XMLDB field object which has overhead. Instead we should just query the database directly and ask it if the table has the column or not So instead of doing: require_once('ddl.php'); $table = new XMLDBTable('tablename'); $field = new XMLDBField('fieldname'); if (field_exists($table, $field)) { ... } We could just do: if (column_exists('tablename', 'fieldname')) { ... } And have the column_exists function that call the database directly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1827445/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
