             Bug #: 28480
           Summary: Deprecate WebResponde::header() in favor of PHP's
                    built-in function header()
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.18-svn
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


The method WebResponse::header() is a wrapper for PHP's built-in function
header() that sends HTTP headers. This then often leads to code like:

$wgRequest->response()->header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');

which means a lot of work with (global) objects that could be done so much
easier with

header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');

Not only does this save object calls and thus improves speed, it's also much
easier to read if you ask me. There are no features lost, as this is really
just a wrapper method.
