Platform: |
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Several NCI parameter types which have complex functionality are
deprecated. These are either implementable as a layer on top of NCI from
within parrot (see zavolaj for ideas), will be replaced by a more general
mechanism, or break encapsulation.
Specifically, the following are deprecated, and replacement strategy
suggested.
J getinterp in sugar layer
@ :slurpy parameters in suage layer
t manage null-padding in sugar layer
0 insert null argument in sugar layer
V an alternate, more general call-by-reference system will be provided
2 an alternate, more general call-by-reference system will be provided
3 an alternate, more general call-by-reference system will be provided
4 an alternate, more general call-by-reference system will be provided
B an alternate, more general call-by-reference system will be provided
b no replacement; stop violating the string system's assumptions
T no replacement; undocumented, broken feature
L no replacement; undocumented, broken feature
