Feature Proposals » TWiki::Func::getRevisionInfo() to take $meta as an argument

Motivation

Currently, TWiki::Func::getRevisionInfo() takes ( $web, $topic, $rev, $attachment ) as arguments -- not taking $meta. Because of that, even if $meta is already there, the topic needs to be read and parsed.

Description and Documentation

By taking $meta as the 5th argument (optional), TWiki::Func::getRevisionInfo() can do its job without reading and parsing the topic if it's provided. As a result, getRevisionInfo() will take ( $web, $topic, $rev, $attachment, $meta ) as arguments. This proposal aims to replace FuncGetTopicLatestRevTime.

Discussion

This looks good. Implementation is very easy since Render::renderRevisionInfo() already accepts $meta
