This variable is an array that stores callbacks to be executed after most of MediaWiki initialization is complete.Extensions can register callbacks to be executed this way using theExtensionFunctions of extension.json.At the time these callbacks are called, MediaWikiServices and the main RequestContext are fully initialized.
Note that config variables have been processed already at this point and changing them is unsafe.Extensions that need to dynamically set configuration should use a registrationcallback instead.
ExtensionFunction callbacks should be used only for initialization code that need to interact with service objects as a final step.
For example, if your extension needs to access database during its initialization:
functioninitMyExtension(){$dbr=MediaWikiServices::getInstance()->getConnectionProvider->getReplicaDatabase();$myExtension=newMyExtension();$myExtension->loadSettingsFromDatabase($dbr);}
