We are preparing for 2.0 so the plan has always been to break API and remove old unused methods. The select API will break again soon once Martin merges his new vector API. - Nathan From: Pirmin Kalberer Sent: 24/01/2013 9:58 AM To: qgis-dev Subject: [Qgis-developer] OpenLayers plugin release and Python API breaks Hi all, I found the time for an OpenLayers plugin release with merged pull requests for Stamen map support and fixes for Python API breaks in master branch (See https://twitter.com/PirminKalberer/status/294226472707715072 for credits). The second point was quite annoying for many users and myself. It is a really bad practice to break the API without deprecation messages when calling these methods. There should be enough time (at least one minor version) for developers for updating their plugins. In this case it would have been easy to keep the old API and add a deprecation message similar to http://code.activestate.com/recipes/391367-deprecated/ Regards Pirmin -- Pirmin Kalberer Sourcepole - Linux & Open Source Solutions http://www.sourcepole.com _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list Qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
