Hi folks, Is there any way, at the moment, to deprecate parts of the Python API? I've always been a fan of the following:
1. Method calls, property access etc. can be annotated as "deprecated". 2. In version N, we start displaying a warning when deprecated functionality is used. This warning also mentions version N+1 as the version in which it will stop working. 3. In version N+1, turn the warning into an error. 4. In version N+2, remove the functionality altogether. How N, N+1 and N+2 map to Blender versions is another discussion. I'm just wondering whether such a system exists in Blender, and if not, if people would find it interesting. The "root cause" for this, is the Scene.frame_current property. It's currently writable, but its documentation tells you to call Scene.set_frame() instead. This made me think about deprecating writing to Scene.frame_current, hence this email. Best, -- Sybren A. Stüvel http://stuvelfoto.nl/ http://stuvel.eu/
