Extension talk:StubManager

(CLOSED)
I installed this and then got "Unable to add cookies, header already sent. LocalSettings.php. Line: 1

Any ideas why that would happen?
 * Paste your LocalSettings.php here and I'll have a look. Of course, leave out the sensitive information. Jean-Lou Dupont 20:36, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I will gmail you instead if that's ok.
 * even better. Jean-Lou Dupont 21:07, 25 September 2007 (UTC)


 * So what causes this error? -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. 03:24, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I never had any feedback on this one nor did I ever see that sort of error with all my experience with this extension. Jean-Lou Dupont 11:26, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

StubManager & ExtensionManager confilct (CLOSED)
I installed StubManager and ExtensionManager via pear and got this:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class ExtensionLoader in /usr/share/php/MediaWiki/ExtensionManager/ExtensionManager.php on line 31
 * Please check if the extension you used to configure ExtensionClass isn't available with StubManager. I do not plan to support both ExtensionClass anymore. Jean-Lou Dupont 21:11, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Login Required?! (CLOSED)
After I installed StubManager via pear login required to all action (e.g. see Main_Page)

So what does this do? (CLOSED)
I am a new extensions developer. I couldn't understand what this extension did from reading the page, but I guessed at what I wanted it to do. I scanned the code briefly and it seems like it might do what I would like it to do.

Q1: Does this extension intercept calls to extension hooks so that not every extension has to be instantiated and loaded for each page?

Q2: What are its features?

Q3: What are its limitations? Brion.finlay 21:50, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
 * R1:yes
 * R2:I'll add some additional notes on the extension's page. In the meantime, why not scan the extensions that depend on this one? There are quite a few... why don't you use this page to see the dependencies?
 * R3:Infinite ;-)

 * Please provide more details because StubManager is the foundation is most of my extensions and I always use PEAR to install it.

SVN download correction to 'require_once' setting for LocalSettings.php
When using the SVN download to install the StubManager extension there is one not so obvious directory name correction necessary.

First, the correct change to the LocalSettings.php file should be:

Secondly, downloading the compressed archive the file name is in the form StubManager-x.x.x.tgz which decompresses to the directory StubManager-x.x.x.

The directory needs to be renamed for the LocalSettings.php to find it.

Rename it:

or link it to StubManager:

Alternately, you could modify the directory name in the LocalSettings.php file: Posted by --AuroraCA 04:18, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
