Ulli Hafner commented on MFINDBUGS-91: -------------------------------------- Thanks, Ulli > Don't remove deprecated fields like findbugsXmlOutput > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MFINDBUGS-91 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MFINDBUGS-91 > Project: Maven 2.x FindBugs Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: Ulli Hafner > Assignee: Garvin LeClaire > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.2 > > > Seems, that you removed the configuration setter findbugsXmlOutput in the 2.2 > Snapshot version. It would be nice if you would only mark such fields (and > setters) as deprecated and let them stay in the code forever, so that > depending libraries need no code changes to function correctly (backward > compatibility). > In my Hudson findbugs plugin I'm currently setting this value via an API > call. That code now fails with an exception: > https://hudson.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4527 > I'll add an exception wrapper in my code, so if you don't want to add the > field again its ok for me. Just for the future it would be good to mark these > changes as deprecated and show the users what to use instead of that method. > -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
