Overview
Pass metadata values rather than convoluted array to
processCustomFields
Before
processCustomFields
receives a complex array which has been obtained from a legacy functionAfter
By switching to passing in the actual values we can start to use an api call rather than a legacy function to load the metadata
Technical Details
As with a lot of CiviCRM code the code around this is bending over backwards to pack & unpack a particular array structure that is dated & not in keeping with a more api-v4-oriented approach
Comments
Code is heavily tested
