function actions_synchronize

7.x actions.inc actions_synchronize($delete_orphans = FALSE)
6.x actions.inc actions_synchronize($actions_in_code = array(), $delete_orphans = FALSE)

Synchronize actions that are provided by modules.

They are synchronized with actions that are stored in the actions table. This is necessary so that actions that do not require configuration can receive action IDs. This is not necessarily the best approach, but it is the most straightforward.

5 calls to actions_synchronize()
