Hi all, The Servlet 4 preview API in 8.5.x has been deprecated for over a year. It was also inconsistent with the final Servlet 4.0 API until I fixed it in 8.5.49 although no-one complained about the inconsistency.
I'd like to propose removing the code completely. I know this is an unusual thing to do in a point release - hence this discussion thread. My reasoning is: - Anyone who wants Servlet 4 will have moved to 9.0.x already - The servlet4preview has been deprecated for over a year - We warned that it would be removed from 8.5.x at some point when we deprecated it. - If people were using it, they would have complained that the API was wrong and no complaints were received. (At least I don't recall any.) - It adds unnecessary complexity to the 8.5.x code. - I like deleting code ;) Thoughts?
