Hi there,

I'm upgrading a block I wrote a while back and need to add a new database table.  Looking at  https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Upgrade_API#Upgrade_API_Cheatsheet the code should be:

function xmldb_block_myblockname_upgrade($oldversion) {
    global $DB, $CFG;

    $dbman = $DB->get_manager();
    
    if ($oldversion < 2018061303) {
        $table = new xmldb_table('my_table_name');
        if(!$dbman->table_exists($table)) {
            $dbman->create_table($table);
        }
    upgrade_block_savepoint(true, 2018061303, 'myblockname');
    }
}

but this is not working and throwing an error

Any clues greatfully received.

Cheers

Dave
