Description Curtis d'Entremont CLA 2004-03-31 15:16:35 EST 
In ISharedImages.java, some of the fields are deprecated, but there is no 
comment explaining why. It would be useful to know:

- when it was deprecated (3.0)
- why it was deprecated
- alternatives, if applicable

(Note: Some of the fields are documented and have this info, but others don't)
Comment 1 Debbie Wilson CLA 2004-04-01 10:57:57 EST 
I assume this is in reference to the ISharedImages in org.eclipse.ui (there 
are 3 in eclipse).
Comment 2 Curtis d'Entremont CLA 2004-04-01 10:59:16 EST 
Correct.
Comment 3 Michael Van Meekeren CLA 2004-04-15 10:21:48 EDT 
whoever is reviewing this could should fix. Nick can you re-assign?

We attempted to go to only a single variant (enabled), which is now coloured,
and allow the OS/SWT to do its thing for the hover and disabled cases.

We found that this resulted in poor disabled icons on Windows, so those were
reinstated.

For these constants, I will back out of the deprecations on the disabled variants.
For the hover variants, they will still be deprecated but I'll update the
Javadoc to refer to the corresponding enabled variant since they will appear the
same.
