DevelopmentMode

Summary

Controls if development is enabled or not.

Usage

DevelopmentMode=enabled|disabled

Description

When enabled the system will perform more checks like modification time on compiled vs source file and will reduce need for clearing template compiled files.

Note: Live sites should not have this enabled since it increases file access  and can be slower.

Note: When switching this setting the template compiled files must be cleared.

  • Information in file

    Well it is not yet documented but this is what appears in the default site.ini file:

    # By enabling development mode all untranslated texts will be translated
    # using the bork rules.
    # See lib/ezi18n/classes/ezborktranslator.php for more information.
    DevelopmentMode=disabled

    And According to the ezborktranslator file:

    \class eZBorkTranslator ezborktranslator.php
    \ingroup eZTranslation
    \brief Translates text into the Bork language (Mock Swedish)

    Does this mean it is a quick translatation mode into swedish... ?? ! ! ?
    • Re: Information in file

      I think, Paul is wrong here.

      There are 2 different settings called "DevelopmentMode" in the site.ini file (as of ez 4.0, at least)
      The one Paul mentions is in [RegionalSettings] . The one we talk about here (in [TemplateSettings]) has this comment and is used during template development.

      # Controls if development is enabled or not.
      # When enabled the system will perform more checks like modification time on
      # compiled vs source file and will reduce need for clearing template compiled
      # files.
      # Note: Live sites should not have this enabled since it increases file access
      # and can be slower.
      # Note: When switching this setting the template compiled files must be cleared.
      DevelopmentMode=disabled
  • CSS Concatenation - ?

    Switching on Development Mode also disables the new (4.2) "CSS Concatenation" - my term, not sure if there's an official one as yet - the collection of CSS files into one compressed file.
