Description Jim des Rivieres

2004-05-05 18:40:51 EDT

The original JDOM API (package org.eclipse.jdt.core.jdom) is obsolete. This 
API was replaced in 2.0 by the finter-grained DOM/AST API 
(org.eclipse.jdt.core.dom), but it was not until 3.0 that DOM/AST API was 
complete (was lacking a rewrite capability).

The JDOM API is still used internally, but it's a matter of time before it is 
converted to use DOM/AST.

Since we don't particularly want new clients to start using JDOM, it should be 
deprecated.

patch for o.e.jdt.core

Patch adds deprecation notices to JDOM API, and reworks implementation to
remove deprecations warnings.

Thanks Jim. I've released your changes.

org.eclipse.jdt.core.jdom.DOMException has not been deprecated.
Jerome, is this intended? If not, we have to reopen this PR.

Comment 7 Jim des Rivieres

2004-05-18 18:29:12 EDT

This was unintentional. DOMException should be deprecated like everything else 
in the package. The deprecation notice should be added for M9.
