delete_files	(	$	questionid,
		$	contextid
	)		`[protected]`

Delete all the files belonging to this question.

Parameters:

int	$questionid	the question being deleted.
int	$contextid	the context the question is in.

Reimplemented from question_type.

Definition at line 54 of file questiontype.php.

Here is the call graph for this function:

extra_question_fields ( )

If your question type has a table that extends the question table, and you want the base class to automatically save, backup and restore the extra fields, override this method to return an array wherer the first element is the table name, and the subsequent entries are the column names (apart from id and questionid).

Returns:: mixed array as above, or null to tell the base class to do nothing.

get_possible_responses ( $ questiondata )

This method should return all the possible types of response that are recognised for this question.

The question is modelled as comprising one or more subparts. For each subpart, there are one or more classes that that students response might fall into, each of those classes earning a certain score.

For example, in a shortanswer question, there is only one subpart, the text entry field. The response the student gave will be classified according to which of the possible $question->options->answers it matches.

For the matching question type, there will be one subpart for each question stem, and for each stem, each of the possible choices is a class of student's response.

A response is an object with two fields, ->responseclass is a string presentation of that response, and ->fraction, the credit for a response in that class.

Array keys have no specific meaning, but must be unique, and must be the same if this function is called repeatedly.

Parameters:

object $question the question definition data.

Returns:: array keys are subquestionid, values are arrays of possible responses to that subquestion.

Reimplemented from question_type.

Definition at line 139 of file questiontype.php.

Here is the call graph for this function:

get_random_guess_score ( $ questiondata )

Parameters:

object $question

Returns:: number|null either a fraction estimating what the student would score by guessing, or null, if it is not possible to estimate.

initialise_question_instance	(	question_definition $	question,
		$	questiondata
	)		`[protected]`

Parameters:

question_definition	$question	the question_definition we are creating.
object	$questiondata	the question data loaded from the database.

Here is the call graph for this function:

move_files	(	$	questionid,
		$	oldcontextid,
		$	newcontextid
	)

Move all the files belonging to this question from one context to another.

Parameters:

int	$questionid	the question being moved.
int	$oldcontextid	the context it is moving from.
int	$newcontextid	the context it is moving to.

Reimplemented from question_type.
