Summary: make get_language_name_from_extension() accessible to
other extensions
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: Normal
Component: SyntaxHighlight (GeSHi)
AssignedTo: soxre...@gmail.com
ReportedBy: won...@riseup.net
I am writing an extension that creates <source> tags and invokes
SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi to highlight source code for various filenames with a
range of file types. It needs to call the
GeSHi::get_language_name_from_extension() function in order to create a source
tag with the correct "lang" attribute given a filename. Currently I have to do
some gyration, first calling SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi::hSpecialVersion_GeSHi() as
a roundabout way to ensure that geshi/geshi.php is loaded in, then creating a
GeSHi object to provide the member function. The php file is probably in
$IP/extensions/SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi, it's true, but there's nothing requiring
it to be located there.
This function could be static, and if either it were moved to the
SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi class, or a SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi class function were
provided that calls it, it would allow me and others to get the job done
without relying on undocumented implementation details. Or failing that, it
would be helpful to add the GeSHi class to $wgAutoloadClasses.
