Description Brion Vibber 2004-09-29 23:44:27 UTC
Code is mostly there but it doesn't yet work.
Comment 1 Gordon P. Hemsley 2004-10-05 04:34:02 UTC
Call-time pass-by-reference is deprecated. Be sure to change that in the final code.

Errors:

Warning: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by
value; If you would like to pass it by reference, modify the declaration of
xml_set_object(). If you would like to enable call-time pass-by-reference, you
can set allow_call_time_pass_reference to true in your INI file. However, future
versions may not support this any longer. in d:\program files\apache
group\apache\htdocs\mediawiki\includes\SpecialImport.php on line 283

Removing block on 1.4 release. Would be nice, but not critical.

Comment 4 Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 2005-04-17 05:01:06 UTC
What needs to be done to get it to work? I understand the xml->php datastructure
part is finished.
Comment 5 Brion Vibber 2005-04-17 05:22:51 UTC
Currently, limited permission-based imports and a streamable command-line interface are yet to be finished.

I haven't checked whether supplementary data is updated properly yet (search, link tables, etc), this is also 
necessary.

Comment 7 Brion Vibber 2005-05-15 01:10:35 UTC
Adding as a 1.5 release blocker. It's mostly done, just needs some cleanup and permissions work to 
make the transwiki interface suitable.
Comment 8 Brion Vibber 2005-06-19 08:16:42 UTC
Manual uploads can now be disabled separately from transwiki imports.

Remaining bits:
* needs to log!
* bits of UI need to be localized
* needs to [optionally] include history, currently the transwiki grabs only the top revision. 
This is a matter for what it loads; the backend for taking multiple revisions is present.
Comment 9 Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 2005-06-21 00:28:40 UTC
(In reply to comment #8)
> * bits of UI need to be localized

I did that and applied it to HEAD.
Comment 10 Juliano F. Ravasi 2005-07-12 03:15:25 UTC
1.5beta3, I'm getting the error described on comment 1 and nothing is imported.
Shouldn't this be fixed before actual release?

Apache 2.0.51, PHP 4.3.10.
Comment 11 Brion Vibber 2005-07-12 05:54:48 UTC
I've filed the warning bit as bug 2812.
