Hi.

On Joomla4 or 5, is it possible to know if the extension being executed is in legacy mode (MVC Joomla3), or should we check the presence of the /services/provider.php file (with is_file(...)) ?

I have found :

if (Factory::getApplication()->bootComponent($extension)->getMVCFactory() instanceof \Joomla\CMS\MVC\Factory\LegacyFactory){
