hi, the __attribute__ ((__deprecated__)) feature of gcc can help us to remember what things will become useless.
I attach a patch with an example. I've used config.h because is included in most of the files, at the top of them. I didn't test if all compiles fine (only the daemon), but you get the idea. With this now you get: if g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -Wall -I../include -DINSTALL_PREFIX=\"/home/juam/src/licq/tree/\" -fPIC -DPIC -D_REENTRANT -g -O2 -fno-exceptions -fno-check-new -MT user.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/user.Tpo" \ -c -o user.o `test -f 'user.cpp' || echo './'`user.cpp; \ then mv -f ".deps/user.Tpo" ".deps/user.Po"; \ else rm -f ".deps/user.Tpo"; exit 1; \ fi user.cpp: In member function `ICQOwner* CUserManager::FetchOwner(short unsigned int)': user.cpp:799: warning: `FetchOwner' is deprecated (declared at ../include/licq_user.h:802) the new macro LICQ_DEPRECATED can be also used in any variable. -- Buenos Aires, Argentina 10°C with winds at 3 km/h NW
