--- Comment #5 from Van de Bugger <[email protected]> 2011-12-13 20:51:48 UTC --- BTW, I do not object against automatic inclusion until it makes no problem is something goes wrong or just in non-standard way. If automatic inclusion produces clear error messages (like modern C compilers e. g. "redefinition of macro XXX in file:line, XXX was defined in file:line") I will happy to have such great tool. But if automatic inclusion produces just a little help for normal case but generates unclear and misleading error messages, I do not like it. And I agree, enabling an extension in MediaWiki sucks. I tried to wrote a function like this: function LoadExtension( $name ) { include_once( "$IP/extensions/$name/$name.php" ); } so I can LoadExtension( 'Array' ); LoadExtension( 'Variable' ); but it does not work, because all the extensions think they are included at global scope, nobody declares global variables.
