They do not favour any particular user interface and are not +constrained to serve any particular feature. This is similar to includes/libs, +except that some dependency on the MediaWiki framework (such as the use of +MWException, Status or wfDebug()) disqualifies them from use outside of +MediaWiki without modification. + +Utilities should not use global configuration variables, rather they should rely +on the caller to configure their behaviour. |
