Greetings,
I made a slight modification to the Database.php [starting at line
1004] file in the wikis I run. Should this be included in the next
Mediawiki release?
function tableName( $name ) {
global $wgSharedDB;
# Skip quoted literals
if ( $name{0} != '`' ) {
if ( $this->mTablePrefix !== '' && strpos(
'.', $name ) === false ) {
$name = "{$this->mTablePrefix}$name";
}
if ( isset( $wgSharedDB ) &&
("{$this->mTablePrefix}user" == $name ) or
("{$this->mTablePrefix}interwiki" == $name)) {
$name = "`$wgSharedDB`.`$name`";
} else {
# Standard quoting
$name = "`$name`";
}
}
return $name;
}
My reasoning for doing this is that if someone is using the same user
table then most likely would like to use a common interwiki table.
That was my use.
What do you all think?
