they got removed from the tasks array, but not from the queue (for performance reasons). The queue gets cleaned up by the heartbeat, but it was checking if there were things in the main array, not in the queue.
There are a couple of other bugs with cancelling tasks that this doesn't fix that are rather more complicated to deal with.
krakjoe's profiler hasn't been updated since 2013. I doubt it's going to get updated in the near future. These days we use xdebug, which is either always on or always off.
PhpStorm can't see these or understand how they are being called, which is very annoying for bug hunting. Additionally, we already have the CodeOptimizer for this.
This has long been a waste of time and creativity, and that's only going to continue to be the case now that we're going to be properly versioning. New codenames every couple of months is not worth the bother.
This may raise a few eyebrows.
Does this mean that all the things that were planned for API 3.0.0 are done?
Not at all. The plans laid out in December 2016 for API 3.0.0 were far too ambitious, and as a result the ALPHA series dragged out forever (18 months now). This is a break away from those plans, to bring development and release flow back to some sort of sanity.
Does this mean that my plugins will stop breaking all the time now?
No, it does not! Development isn't going to stop, although breaking changes will be confined only to major API releases. It's anticipated that the major API version will be bumped as nearly as often as the ALPHA version was during the last 18 months. The reason for this return to 3.0.0 is to allow us to fine-tune our release flow so that plugin developers can get advantage of newer, non-breaking API features without having to bump the API in a breaking way.
What are the criteria for the API versions now?
- Major: This will be bumped for breaking changes, changes which will break plugins. it's expected that we'll roll out new major versions regularly.
- Minor: This will be bumped when non-breaking feature additions are made, such that API 3.0.0 plugins would still load on 3.1.0. However, plugins requiring 3.1.0 will not run on 3.0.0.
- Patch: This will be bumped for bugfix updates. Plugins requiring 3.0.0 will work on 3.0.1, but not vice versa.
TL;DR: This insanity has gone on far too long.
This features a near-total rewrite of PluginLoaders and some code associated with them.
Highlights:
- PluginManager->registerInterface() does not return anything, and now accepts a PluginLoader instance instead of a string.
- PluginLoader itself is drastically simplified. getPluginFilters(), enablePlugin() and disablePlugin() are now removed. loadPlugin() responsibilities are now solely confined to doing whatever is necessary to make the plugin's classes visible by the server, and does not emit log messages or check for data directories.
- PluginBase->init() and PluginBase->isInitialized() have been removed.
- Plugin interface now declares a signature for the constructor which implementations must comply with.
- Plugin interface now declares setEnabled().
