Database connection necessary?

[heiderich]

standalonePGproblemRenderer.pl seems to depend on a webwork database. It seems however that the only places where the database connection

standaloneProblemRenderer/standalonePGproblemRenderer.pl

Line 404 in 74e9da0

our $db = WeBWorK::DB->new($dbLayout);

is actually used are:

standaloneProblemRenderer/standalonePGproblemRenderer.pl

Line 928 in 74e9da0

my $user = $input->{user} || fake_user($db);

standaloneProblemRenderer/standalonePGproblemRenderer.pl

Line 929 in 74e9da0

my $set = $input->{'this_set'} || fake_set($db);

standaloneProblemRenderer/standalonePGproblemRenderer.pl

Line 955 in 74e9da0

my $problem = fake_problem($db, 'problem_seed'=>$problem_seed);

Can these fake objects be generated without a database? I hope so.
