A contradiction? If the part has yet to be implemented, it can't be dead code. Code either exists or not. Regarding deprecation of older parts. A part no longer being purchaseable doesn't mean it's no longer used. Not at all. Existing devices can get code updates or even fundamental changes. They may need bugs fixed. Sometimes such a part is kind of a reference for testing algorithms. Code examples meant for learning can break. Simulation of old hardware (historians, museums, geeks) becomes impossible. All these setbacks just to save half a second of compilation time? Please keep such parts. Markus -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dipl. Ing.
