Deprecation: #82254 - Deprecate $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['extConf']

=============================================================================

See :issue:82254

Description

===========

The extension configuration stored in :php:$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['extConf'] has been

deprecated and replaced by a plain array in :php:$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTENSIONS']. A new

API has been introduced to retrieve extension configuration.

Affected Installations

======================

All extensions manually getting settings and unserializing them

from :php:$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXT']['extConf'].

Migration

=========

Use a new API to retrieve extension configuration, examples:

.. code-block:: php

// Retrieve a single key

$backendFavicon = (bool)GeneralUtility::makeInstance(ExtensionConfiguration::class)->get('backend', 'backendFavicon');



// Retrieve whole configuration

$backendConfiguration = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(ExtensionConfiguration::class)->get('backend');



// Fully qualified class names for usage in ext_localconf.php / ext_tables.php

$backendConfiguration = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance(

    \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Configuration\ExtensionConfiguration::class

)->get('backend');
