Making version.php

This file works exactly as we have discussed in prior chapters. It is used to manage database upgrades and enforce required versions of Moodle. This file takes on greater importance for activity modules because they are more data intensive than earlier modules. In the code sample below, we define the current version of the module and the version of Moodle required to run the module:

$module->version = 2009060103;
$module->requires = 2007101509;
$module->cron = 0;

In our next section, we will cover how to add a custom icon to the module.
