function hook_module_implements_alter in Drupal 7

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 8 core/lib/Drupal/Core/Extension/module.api.php \hook_module_implements_alter()
2. 9 core/lib/Drupal/Core/Extension/module.api.php \hook_module_implements_alter()
3. 10 core/lib/Drupal/Core/Extension/module.api.php \hook_module_implements_alter()

Alter the registry of modules implementing a hook.

This hook is invoked during module_implements(). A module may implement this hook in order to reorder the implementing modules, which are otherwise ordered by the module's system weight.

Note that hooks invoked using drupal_alter() can have multiple variations (such as hook_form_alter() and hook_form_FORM_ID_alter()). drupal_alter() will call all such variants defined by a single module in turn. For the purposes of hook_module_implements_alter(), these variants are treated as a single hook. Thus, to ensure that your implementation of hook_form_FORM_ID_alter() is called at the right time, you will have to change the order of hook_form_alter() implementation in hook_module_implements_alter().

Parameters

$implementations: An array keyed by the module's name. The value of each item corresponds to a $group, which is usually FALSE, unless the implementation is in a file named $module.$group.inc.

$hook: The name of the module hook being implemented.
