Description Chris Recoskie CLA 2009-04-14 09:13:06 EDT 
The CDOM has not really been supported for years, but it has not been removed and it is in a public package with no deprecation annotation.  The main problem I see with it is is that it uses the InternalASTServiceProvider to do everything, which bypasses the language manager, ILanguage, etc.

I suggest we mark it deprecated for this release, and where possible remove what few internal references to it still remain.  Then in CDT 7.0 we should remove it altogether.

I have heard no objections, so I've marked CDOM as deprecated.

Leaving this open to track when we finally remove it.

This bug was assigned and targeted at a now released milestone (or Future or Next that isn't being used by CDT). As that milestone has now passed, the milestone field has been cleared. If this bug has been fixed, please set the milestone to the version it was fixed in and mark the bug as resolved.
