Hi, Although, I do know the intend to recommend one against the other, doing some code differences helps to sort out things. They both inherits from same classes but the constructor for QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink accepts an additionnal arg bool supportsAppend <https://api.qgis.org/api/3.22/classQgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink.html#acae2863d5dab37aec4c5466d7d3a84d9> =false
You also find the additional methods in QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink to manipulate the same supportsAppend. ``` a = QgsProcessingParameterVectorDestination( 'OUTPUT', 'Sortie' ) b = QgsProcessingParameterFeatureSink( 'OUTPUT', 'Sortie' ) methods_a = dir(a) methods_b = dir(b) common_methods = set(methods_a).intersection(methods_b) print(common_methods) only_in_a = set(methods_a).difference(methods_b) print(only_in_a) only_in_b = set(methods_b).difference(methods_a) print(only_in_b) ``` Regards Thomas Gratier Le ven. 21 oct. 2022 à 18:07, Anita Graser via QGIS-Developer < qgis-developer@lists.osgeo.org> a écrit : > Thank you Stefan, > > I saw that note but was hoping some developer could shed light on what > they mean by "more flexible" and "wherever possible".
