/**
- * Define menu items and page callbacks.
- *
- * This hook enables modules to register paths in order to define how URL
- * requests are handled. Paths may be registered for URL handling only, or they
- * can register a link to be placed in a menu (usually the Navigation menu). A
- * path and its associated information is commonly called a "menu router item".
- * This hook is rarely called (for example, when modules are enabled), and
- * its results are cached in the database.
- *
- * hook_menu() implementations return an associative array whose keys define
- * paths and whose values are an associative array of properties for each
- * path. (The complete list of properties is in the return value section below.)
- *
- * The definition for each path may include a page callback function, which is
- * invoked when the registered path is requested. If there is no other
- * registered path that fits the requested path better, any further path
- * components are passed to the callback function. For example, your module
- * could register path 'abc/def':
- * @code
- * function mymodule_menu() {
- * $items['abc/def'] = array(
- * 'page callback' => 'mymodule_abc_view',
- * );
- * }
- *
- * function mymodule_abc_view($ghi = 0, $jkl = '') {
- * // ...
- * }
- * @endcode
- * When path 'abc/def' is requested, no further path components are in the
- * request, and no additional arguments are passed to the callback function (so
- * $ghi and $jkl would take the default values as defined in the function
- * signature). When 'abc/def/123/foo' is requested, $ghi will be '123' and
- * $jkl will be 'foo'. Note that this automatic passing of optional path
- * arguments applies only to page and theme callback functions.
- *
- * In addition to optional path arguments, the page callback and other callback
- * functions may specify argument lists as arrays. These argument lists may
- * contain both fixed/hard-coded argument values and integers that correspond
- * to path components. When integers are used and the callback function is
- * called, the corresponding path components will be substituted for the
- * integers. That is, the integer 0 in an argument list will be replaced with
- * the first path component, integer 1 with the second, and so on (path
- * components are numbered starting from zero). This substitution feature allows
- * you to re-use a callback function for several different paths. For example:
- * @code
- * function mymodule_menu() {
- * $items['abc/def'] = array(
- * 'page callback' => 'mymodule_abc_view',
- * 'page arguments' => array(1, 'foo'),
- * );
- * }
- * @endcode
- * When path 'abc/def' is requested, the page callback function will get 'def'
- * as the first argument and (always) 'foo' as the second argument.
- *
- * Note that if a page or theme callback function has an argument list array,
- * these arguments will be passed first to the function, followed by any
- * any arguments generated by optional path arguments as described above.
- *
- * Special care should be taken for the page callback drupal_get_form(), because
- * your specific form callback function will always receive $form and
- * &$form_state as the first function arguments:
- * @code
- * function mymodule_abc_form($form, &$form_state) {
- * // ...
- * return $form;
- * }
- * @endcode
- * See @link form_api Form API documentation @endlink for details.
- *
- * Wildcards within paths also work with integer substitution. For example,
- * your module could register path 'my-module/%/edit':
- * @code
- * $items['my-module/%/edit'] = array(
- * 'page callback' => 'mymodule_abc_edit',
- * 'page arguments' => array(1),
- * );
- * @endcode
- * When path 'my-module/foo/edit' is requested, integer 1 will be replaced
- * with 'foo' and passed to the callback function.
- *
- * Registered paths may also contain special "auto-loader" wildcard components
- * in the form of '%mymodule_abc', where the '%' part means that this path
- * component is a wildcard, and the 'mymodule_abc' part defines the prefix for a
- * load function, which here would be named mymodule_abc_load(). When a matching
- * path is requested, your load function will receive as its first argument the
- * path component in the position of the wildcard; load functions may also be
- * passed additional arguments (see "load arguments" in the return value
- * section below). For example, your module could register path
- * 'my-module/%mymodule_abc/edit':
- * @code
- * $items['my-module/%mymodule_abc/edit'] = array(
- * 'page callback' => 'mymodule_abc_edit',
- * 'page arguments' => array(1),
- * );
- * @endcode
- * When path 'my-module/123/edit' is requested, your load function
- * mymodule_abc_load() will be invoked with the argument '123', and should
- * load and return an "abc" object with internal id 123:
- * @code
- * function mymodule_abc_load($abc_id) {
- * return db_query("SELECT * FROM {mymodule_abc} WHERE abc_id = :abc_id", array(':abc_id' => $abc_id))->fetchObject();
- * }
- * @endcode
- * This 'abc' object will then be passed into the page callback function
- * mymodule_abc_edit() to replace the integer 1 in the page arguments.
- *
- * You can also make groups of menu items to be rendered (by default) as tabs
- * on a page. To do that, first create one menu item of type MENU_NORMAL_ITEM,
- * with your chosen path, such as 'foo'. Then duplicate that menu item, using a
- * subdirectory path, such as 'foo/tab1', and changing the type to
- * MENU_DEFAULT_LOCAL_TASK to make it the default tab for the group. Then add
- * the additional tab items, with paths such as "foo/tab2" etc., with type
- * MENU_LOCAL_TASK. Example:
- * @code
- * // Make "Foo settings" appear on the admin Config page
- * $items['admin/config/foo'] = array(
- * 'title' => 'Foo settings',
- * 'type' => MENU_NORMAL_ITEM,
- * // page callback, etc. need to be added here
- * );
- * // Make "Global settings" the main tab on the "Foo settings" page
- * $items['admin/config/foo/global'] = array(
- * 'title' => 'Global settings',
- * 'type' => MENU_DEFAULT_LOCAL_TASK,
- * // access callback, page callback, and theme callback will be inherited
- * // from 'admin/config/foo', if not specified here to override
- * );
- * // Make an additional tab called "Node settings" on "Foo settings"
- * $items['admin/config/foo/node'] = array(
- * 'title' => 'Node settings',
- * 'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
- * // access callback, page callback, and theme callback will be inherited
- * // from 'admin/config/foo', if not specified here to override
- * );
- * @endcode
- *
- * @return
- * An array of menu items. Each menu item has a key corresponding to the
- * Drupal path being registered. The corresponding array value is an
- * associative array that may contain the following key-value pairs:
- * - "title": Required. The untranslated title of the menu item.
- * - "title callback": Function to generate the title; defaults to t().
- * If you require only the raw string to be output, set this to FALSE.
- * - "title arguments": Arguments to send to t() or your custom callback,
- * with path component substitution as described above.
- * - "description": The untranslated description of the menu item.
- * - "page callback": The function to call to display a web page when the user
- * visits the path. If omitted, the parent menu item's callback will be used
- * instead.
- * - "page arguments": An array of arguments to pass to the page callback
- * function, with path component substitution as described above.
- * - "delivery callback": The function to call to package the result of the
- * page callback function and send it to the browser. Defaults to
- * drupal_deliver_html_page() unless a value is inherited from a parent menu
- * item.
- * - "access callback": A function returning a boolean value that determines
- * whether the user has access rights to this menu item. Defaults to
- * user_access() unless a value is inherited from a parent menu item.
- * - "access arguments": An array of arguments to pass to the access callback
- * function, with path component substitution as described above.
- * - "theme callback": Optional. A function returning the machine-readable
- * name of the default theme that will be used to render the page. If this
- * function is provided, it is expected to return a currently-active theme
- * on the site (otherwise, the main site theme will be used instead). If no
- * function is provided, the main site theme will also be used, unless a
- * value is inherited from a parent menu item. In all cases, the results of
- * this function can be dynamically overridden for a particular page
- * request by modules which implement hook_custom_theme().
- * - "theme arguments": An array of arguments to pass to the theme callback
- * function, with path component substitution as described above.
- * - "file": A file that will be included before the page callback is called;
- * this allows page callback functions to be in separate files. The file
- * should be relative to the implementing module's directory unless
- * otherwise specified by the "file path" option. Does not apply to other
- * callbacks (only page callback).
- * - "file path": The path to the directory containing the file specified in
- * "file". This defaults to the path to the module implementing the hook.
- * - "load arguments": An array of arguments to be passed to each of the
- * wildcard object loaders in the path, after the path argument itself.
- * For example, if a module registers path node/%node/revisions/%/view
- * with load arguments set to array(3), the '%node' in the path indicates
- * that the loader function node_load() will be called with the second
- * path component as the first argument. The 3 in the load arguments
- * indicates that the fourth path component will also be passed to
- * node_load() (numbering of path components starts at zero). So, if path
- * node/12/revisions/29/view is requested, node_load(12, 29) will be called.
- * There are also two "magic" values that can be used in load arguments.
- * "%index" indicates the index of the wildcard path component. "%map"
- * indicates the path components as an array. For example, if a module
- * registers for several paths of the form 'user/%user_category/edit/*', all
- * of them can use the same load function user_category_load(), by setting
- * the load arguments to array('%map', '%index'). For instance, if the user
- * is editing category 'foo' by requesting path 'user/32/edit/foo', the load
- * function user_category_load() will be called with 32 as its first
- * argument, the array ('user', 32, 'edit', 'foo') as the map argument,
- * and 1 as the index argument (because %user_category is the second path
- * component and numbering starts at zero). user_category_load() can then
- * use these values to extract the information that 'foo' is the category
- * being requested.
- * - "weight": An integer that determines the relative position of items in
- * the menu; higher-weighted items sink. Defaults to 0. Menu items with the
- * same weight are ordered alphabetically.
- * - "menu_name": Optional. Set this to a custom menu if you don't want your
- * item to be placed in Navigation.
- * - "context": (optional) Defines the context a tab may appear in. By
- * default, all tabs are only displayed as local tasks when being rendered
- * in a page context. All tabs that should be accessible as contextual links
- * in page region containers outside of the parent menu item's primary page
- * context should be registered using one of the following contexts:
- * - MENU_CONTEXT_PAGE: (default) The tab is displayed as local task for the
- * page context only.
- * - MENU_CONTEXT_INLINE: The tab is displayed as contextual link outside of
- * the primary page context only.
- * Contexts can be combined. For example, to display a tab both on a page
- * and inline, a menu router item may specify:
- * @code
- * 'context' => MENU_CONTEXT_PAGE | MENU_CONTEXT_INLINE,
- * @endcode
- * - "tab_parent": For local task menu items, the path of the task's parent
- * item; defaults to the same path without the last component (e.g., the
- * default parent for 'admin/people/create' is 'admin/people').
- * - "tab_root": For local task menu items, the path of the closest non-tab
- * item; same default as "tab_parent".
- * - "block callback": Name of a function used to render the block on the
- * system administration page for this item (called with no arguments).
- * If not provided, system_admin_menu_block() is used to generate it.
- * - "position": Position of the block ('left' or 'right') on the system
- * administration page for this item.
- * - "type": A bitmask of flags describing properties of the menu item.
- * Many shortcut bitmasks are provided as constants in menu.inc:
- * - MENU_NORMAL_ITEM: Normal menu items show up in the menu tree and can be
- * moved/hidden by the administrator.
- * - MENU_CALLBACK: Callbacks simply register a path so that the correct
- * information is generated when the path is accessed.
- * - MENU_SUGGESTED_ITEM: Modules may "suggest" menu items that the
- * administrator may enable.
- * - MENU_LOCAL_ACTION: Local actions are menu items that describe actions
- * on the parent item such as adding a new user or block, and are
- * rendered in the action-links list in your theme.
- * - MENU_LOCAL_TASK: Local tasks are menu items that describe different
- * displays of data, and are generally rendered as tabs.
- * - MENU_DEFAULT_LOCAL_TASK: Every set of local tasks should provide one
- * "default" task, which should display the same page as the parent item.
- * If the "type" element is omitted, MENU_NORMAL_ITEM is assumed.
- *
- * For a detailed usage example, see page_example.module.
- * For comprehensive documentation on the menu system, see
- * http://drupal.org/node/102338.
