RE: Finding deprecated methods

2016-06-15 Thread Javen O'Neal
Follow-on question: some deprecation warnings on say what the replacement
for the method or class is. Java's QuickFix sometimes gets it right if a
method is renamed, but punts when the parameters. Is there an easy way to
update old usages that's faster than per-usage or per-deprecation?

Is there a standard way we should be formatting our deprecation warnings to
make it trivial for our users to upgrade their code base?

RE: Finding deprecated methods

2016-06-15 Thread Uwe Schindler
Hi,

You can also download the JAR files of those releases and use a comparison tool 
like http://siom79.github.io/japicmp/ to compare them. This tool can be run 
using CLI and also prints changes in @Deprecated.

The CLI syntax is here: http://siom79.github.io/japicmp/CliTool.html

I always use "-m" (only show modified stuff) and "-o" and "-n" to specify the 
old and new JAR file. After that you can grep on something like DEPRECATED.

I'd probably attempt it with:
* grep trunk for @deprecated with no date, with a -A 4 or similar, then
  grab the method name from that
* grab a list of old versions from "svn ls ^/poi/tags/"
* use "svn switch ^/poi/tags//" to quickly walk your tree back through
  older versions
* do the same greps, and spot where they vanish

If that all sounds a bit hairy, let me know and I can try it later in the 
week!
