The kohaversion is in the code directory (in /kohaversion.pl)
C4::Context now has a new method C4::Context->KOHAVERSION
that returns the koha code version.
The systempreference Version contains the database version.
If the 2 are differents, when the user log in, he is redirected to web installer (new behaviour : before this commit, the check was done on everypage, it's too CPU costly I think)
In the web installer, we check now if we do a new setup or an upgrade and show only the appropriate link.
The updatedatabase contains a lot of new things :
* SetVersion($kohaversion), that set the kohaversion after each update
* TransformToNum($kohaversion) that returns a number (3.0000001 from 3.00.00.001 for example) for a given koha version
* DropAllForeignKeys($table) that does what is written : drop all foreign keys. A shame it's not possible directly in mySQL...
* for each database update, just :
add the following lines :
=item
Describe what it does for other developpers
=cut
$DBversion = "your.koha.version.dbnumber";
if (C4::Context->preference("Version") < TransformToNum($DBversion)) {
#
# DO YOUR UPDATE STUFF
#
print "Upgrade to $DBversion done (specify what it does if you want)\n";
SetVersion ($DBversion);
}
IMPORTANT NOTES :
in koha 2.2, a new install was done through installing a 2.2.0 database, then updating it to the installed version.
in Koha 3.0, /installer/kohaversion.sql MUST contain an uptodate version, as the installer set the DB version to kohaversion after uploading kohaversion.sql. It does NOT run updatedatabase.
The update from Koha 2.2 to Koha 3.0 must NOT be done through the webinstaller : updatedatabase is very very long to run and you'll reach Apache timeout for sure. See http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=22_to_30 that contains my notes for upgrading (with some/few UNIMARC specific stuff)
Note For RM, please eyeball this change

So this implies quite a change for files.
Sorry about conflicts which will be caused.
directory Interface::CGI should now be dropped.
I noticed that many scripts (reports ones, but also some circ/stats.pl or opac-topissues) still use Date::Manip.
skips third party software check and mysql check to go to updatedatabase.
Adding similar check to intranet and opac.
BEWARE !!!!!
You may be linked to install if you donot have Version variable set in your systempreferences table.
If so, simply updatedatabase OR add Version 3.0 record to your systempreferences table.
adding two fields in branches table (branchip,branchprinter)
branchip : if the library enter an ip or ip range any librarian that connect from computer in this ip range will be temporarly affected to the corresponding branch .
branchprinter : the library can select a default printer for a branch
- modified userenv to add branchname
- modifier menus.inc to have the librarian name & userenv displayed on every page. they are in a librarian_information div.
* synch with rel_2_2. Probably the last non manual synch, as rel_2_2 should not be modified deeply.
* code cleaning (cleaning warnings from perl -w) continued
