  • combine the exponent_common.php & exponent_bootstrap.php files calling them exponent_bootstrap.php
    • exponent_common.php only creates the realpath() function and loads exponent_bootstrap.php which in turn attempts to create the realpath() function.
  • move the loading of exponent_constants.php out of exponent.php and into exponent_bootstrap.php
    • Since all these files simply set the "defines" of the environment
  • move the loading of subsystems/themes.php out of exponent_constants.php and into exponent.php after sessions is loaded and initialized (current loading order is therefore maintained)
    • again, to maintain a standardized approach to the loading sequence and flatten it somewhat
  • combine or streamline the files loaded by exponent_bootstrap.php: exponent_variables.php (which in turn loads) exponent_version.php and subsystems/config/load.php (which then in turn loads the global config, the theme config, then the default configs), exponent_setup.php and exponent_constants.php; since all establish the constants (defines) for exponent. (There has to be a more logical flow and grouping than current)

  (from [9c51af40cdffb857ff0a9f49cd295545f4fa66ef]) Changed references to exponent_common.php to exponent_bootstrap.php since exponent_common was simple and also redundant of what was already in exponent_bootstrap.php. [#234] https://github.com/exponentcms/exponent-cms/commit/9c51af40cdffb857...

  references to exponent_common.php has been replaced wtih exponent_bootstrap.php. If this doesn't cause any issues, we'll delete exponent_common.php

  (from [dbfcc88ba9163ed736416b22bde0798d9a67ce64]) Loading of exponent_constants.php was moved earlier into exponent_bootstrap.php for standardization. Loading of subsystems/themes.php was stripped out of exponent_constants.php and put into exponent.php where is was being loaded earlier.

  (from [c73b253790b4a49b8d240a483c821b0e88282fff]) A seemingly major change because of the filenames, but a Minor revision to the exponent "bootstrap" process to streamline it and give it a more linear flow. exponent_variables.php renamed to exponent_constants.php which was in turn renamed to exponent_constants2.php before it'll be deleted. Contents were moved into other file with config dependant constants being moved inot exponent_bootstrap.php
  exponent_setup.php was renamed to exponent_php_setup.php since that's it's function and the environment constants were moved into exponent_constants.php.

  At this point, if nothing seems to be broken, we can delete the exponent_constants2.php file.

  • I'll need to write an upgrade script for rc1 that deletes exponent_common.php, exponent_variables.php, exponent_setup.php (probably exponent_constants2.php), compat.php, the compat/ folder, captcha.php, & captcha_why.php since they've all become obsolete and are no longer referenced. Though their remaining in the folder does no harm.
  • Will likely want to delete the deps.php and exponent_compt.php files since they are derelicts from 1.0.
