◆ from_column_name()

static core_question\local\bank\column_base::from_column_name	(	view	$view,
		string	$columnname,
		bool	$ingoremissing = false )

staticinherited

Return an instance of this column, based on the column name.

In the case of the base class, we don't actually use the column name since the class represents one specific column. However, sub-classes may use the column name as an additional constructor to the parameter.

Parameters

view	$view	Question bank view
string	$columnname	The column name for this instance, as returned by {

See also: get_column_name()}

Parameters

bool $ingoremissing Whether to ignore if the class does not exist.

Return values

core_question\local\bank\column_base::get_column_id ( )

finalinherited

Return a unique ID for this column object.

This is constructed using the class name and get_column_name(), which must be unique.

The combination of these attributes allows the object to be reconstructed, by splitting the ID into its constituent parts then calling {

See also: from_column_name()}, like this: [$class, $columnname] = explode(column_base\ID_SEPARATOR, $columnid, 2); $column = $class\from_column_name($qbank, $columnname); Including 2 as the $limit parameter for explode() is a good idea for safely, in case a plugin defines a column with the ID_SEPARATOR in the column name.

Return values

string The column ID.

◆ get_column_name()

core_question\local\bank\column_base::get_column_name ( )

inherited

Get the name of this column.

Return an array 'table_alias' => 'JOIN clause' to bring in any data that this feature requires.

The return values for all the features will be checked. It is OK if two features join in the same table with the same alias and identical JOIN clauses. If two features try to use the same alias with different joins, you get an error. Tables included by default are question (alias q) and those defined in {

It is importnat that your join simply adds additional data (or NULLs) to the existing rows of the query. It must not cause additional rows.

Return values

string[] 'table_alias' => 'JOIN clause'

Reimplemented from core_question\local\bank\column_base.

◆ get_menu_position()

core_question\local\bank\view_component::get_menu_position ( )

Return values

int	desired position. Smallest at the top.
