Override core files?

Hello,

is it possible to override core files (kernel/classes/...) so that they are not overwritten by updates as with settings/designs?

I have to do modifications to ezldapuser.php to get LDAP working here (see http://ez.no/community/forum/setup_design/can_t_authenticate_via_ldap_after_updating_3_4_3_to_3_5_1) which I have to remember each time I update ezpublish.

An override mechanism would spare me this.

Any clues?

Kind regards,
André

Hi André,

This is impossible. If you need special functionality you will have to create your own module. More information you can find in documentation.

With svn (http://pubsv.ez.no) you can modify files, when you update, it keeps your modifications and does a rather good job if it needs to merge your modifications with ez ones.

Hello,

about SVN: How do you think exactly this could be done? I know about merging possibilities of source-code-management systems, but wouldn't I have to set my own then?
I can't imagine that it could be possible to put my own modifications in in SVN on ez.no - or am I wrong?

Kind regards,
André
