function ctools_passthrough in Chaos Tool Suite (ctools) 6

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 7 includes/utility.inc \ctools_passthrough()

Provide a hook passthrough to included files.

To organize things neatly, each CTools tool gets its own toolname.$type.inc file. If it exists, it's loaded and ctools_$tool_$type() is executed. To save time we pass the $items array in so we don't need to do array addition. It modifies the array by reference and doesn't need to return it.
