Bug 36432: Remove circular dependency from Koha::Object
Koha::Object depends on Koha::DateUtils, which depends on C4::Context,
which depends on Koha::Config::SysPref, which depends on... Koha::Object
Apart from the circular dependency, the dependency on C4::Context alone
is problematic as it loads a bunch of modules that are not needed at all
in Koha::Object (YAML::XS and ZOOM for instance).
As Koha::Object is used as a base for a lot of modules, we should take
care to only load the minimum required.
This patch moves some date parsing code to specific modules:
- Koha::DateTime::Format::RFC3339
- Koha::DateTime::Format::SQL
and it uses them in Koha::Object and Koha::DateUtils where it is
possible.
Test plan:
1. Do not apply the patch yet and run the following command:
`perl -cw Koha/Object.pm`
It should print several warnings about redefined subroutines, meaning
there is a circular dependency.
2. Apply the patch
3. Run `perl -cw Koha/Object.pm`. It should only say:
"Koha/Object.pm syntax OK"
4. Run the following command:
prove \
t/DateUtils.t \
t/Koha/DateTime/Format/RFC3339.t \
t/db_dependent/Koha/Object.t
