Re: [forge-dev] Plugin Backwards Compatibility

That last line seems the output of the "example-plugin oldcommand" execution.

Zimbra swallowed a portion of the previous response when I hit 'send'. Forge would display something like this in 1.2.3: [example-project] example-project $ example-plugin oldcommand ***WARNING*** The command (oldcommand) is deprecated and may be removed in future versions Executed named command without args. What does that last line mean ? Seems like a confusing thing ? btw. nice to have deprecation ability. /max There is also a related item in JIRA: FORGE-828, but from what I've noticed, this is not wired up to display deprecated options/commands as striked out text. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vineet Reynolds Pereira" <vpereira(a)redhat.com&gt; <vpereira(a)redhat.com&gt; To: "forge-dev List" <forge-dev(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; <forge-dev(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; Sent: Monday, March 25, 2013 5:06:53 PM Subject: Re: [forge-dev] Plugin Backwards Compatibility Yes, George worked on this feature:https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-826 .

I wanted some @Option-annotated method parameters and @Command-annotated methods to be removed or deprecated, but didn't so, due to the reasons Max and Lincoln have outlined. I would suggest retaining the existing options and commands for backward compatibility, and introduce new ones if you can make them work with the existing ones. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Max Rydahl Andersen" <max.andersen(a)redhat.com&gt; <max.andersen(a)redhat.com&gt; To: "forge-dev List" <forge-dev(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; <forge-dev(a)lists.jboss.org&gt; Sent: Monday, March 25, 2013 10:33:56 AM Subject: Re: [forge-dev] Plugin Backwards Compatibility On Fri, Mar 22, 2013 at 06:09:56PM -0700, James R.

I haven't completely finished testing yet, but since Forge allows scripts I was wondering if backwards compatibility is important. Yes, it is important since tutorials and eclipse plugins calling these commands will have to be updated. Especially if your plugin is used in ticketmonster :) /max -- James R.
