Deprecated MethodsMethodDescriptionUse
AbstractCExtension.getConfigExtensionReference()instead.never worked.org.eclipse.cdt.core.browser.AllTypesCache.getTypes(ICProject, IQualifiedTypeName, boolean, boolean) never worked.This method was never used in CDT.clients really need to pick which toolchain they want a build config for. This method pretty much picks one at random.the version doesn't matter. id's for a given type must be unique.version is now irrelevant. id's are unique.we no longer organize toolchains by provider id.toolchains no longer have multiple versions per idproviders do not manage toolchains, call IToolManager.getToolChain() instead.Notice that the identifier is not being checked against language keywords. Use validateIdentifier(String id, AbstractCLikeLanguage language) instead.since CDT 6.1. UseErrorParserManager.getErrorParserAvailableIds()instead- use getBinaryParserExtensions(IProject project)Settings should be set per ICConfigurationDescription rather than global to the project. Please useCCorePlugin.getProjectDescription(IProject, boolean)to fetch the ICProjectDescription for the project. And useICProjectDescription.getConfigurations()to get an array of ICConfigurationDescriptions, which have similar API to ICDescriptor, allowing you to store settings and configure extensions at the Configuration level rather than at the project level.useITranslationUnitorILanguageto construct ASTs, instead.since CDT 6.1. UseErrorParserManager.getErrorParserCopy(String)insteaduse getIndexManager().This method is no longer used and is scheduled for removal in 10.0.don't use it does something strangeThis method is no longer used and is scheduled for removal in 10.0.Replaced byICASTDesignatedInitializer.getOperand();Replaced by setOperand();Replaced byICNodeFactory.newSimpleDeclSpecifier()Use getNameSpecifier() instead.Use setNameSpecifier() instead.Use setVirtSpecifier() instead.Replaced byICPPASTConstructorChainInitializer.getInitializer().Replaced byICPPASTConstructorInitializer.getArguments().Use setScopeToken instead IfisScoped == trueis passed, theScopeToken.CLASSscope token is assumed.UseICPPASTFunctionDefinition.getMemberInitializers(), instead.the id-expressions are part of the type-idReplaced byICPPASTNewExpression.getInitializer()Replaced byICPPASTNewExpression.getPlacementArguments()the id-expressions are part of the type-id.useIBasicType.getModifiers(), instead.UseICPPClassType.getAllDeclaredMethods()instead.UseICPPClassType.getBases()instead.UseICPPClassType.getConstructors()instead.UseICPPClassType.getDeclaredFields()instead.UseICPPClassType.getDeclaredMethods()instead.UseICPPClassType.getFields()instead.UseICPPClassType.getFriends()instead.UseICPPClassType.getMethods()instead.UseICPPClassType.getNestedClasses()instead.UseICPPClassType.getUsingDeclarations()instead.UseICPPClassSpecialization.specializeMember(IBinding)instead.useICPPConstructor.getConstructorChainExecution()instead.function types don't relate to this pointers at all.UseICPPFunction.getExceptionSpecification()instead.Use newAttributeList() instead.UsenewEnumerationSpecifier(ScopeToken, IASTName, ICPPASTDeclSpecifier)instead.

Attributes should not be assigned to nodes directly, but have to be wrapped by attribute specifiers.Use IASTAttributeList.addAttribute() instead.Use IASTAttributeList.getAttributes() instead.Use ICASTDeclSpecifier.getAlignmentSpecifiers() for C code. In C++ code, alignment specifiers are now stored in the attribute specifier sequence.Use ICASTDeclSpecifier.setAlignmentSpecifiers() for C code. In C++ code, alignment specifiers are now stored in the attribute specifier sequence.Replaced byIASTInitializerList.addClause(IASTInitializerClause).Replaced byIASTInitializerList.getClauses().Replaced byIASTLiteralExpression.setValue(char[]).UseIASTTranslationUnit.getLinkage()insteaduseIASTTranslationUnit.getNodeSelector(String), instead.Use the type-safe version getKind(), instead.Types don't have values.Use newGCCAttributeList() instead.UseIScope.getBindings(ScopeLookupData)insteadUseIScope.getBindings(ScopeLookupData)insteadReturns an empty character array.Returns an empty array.Use numberValue() instead.Using this method is problematic, because for names from the index never contain qualification or template arguments, which is different for names from the AST. UseIName.getSimpleID(), instead.Do not override this method. OverrideAbstractCLikeLanguage.getScannerExtensionConfiguration(IScannerInfo)instead.org.eclipse.cdt.core.dom.parser.cpp.ICPPParserExtensionConfiguration.supportGCCOtherBuiltinSymbols()configure extra keywords, viaIScannerExtensionConfiguration.getAdditionalKeywords()simply derive from this class and useAbstractScannerExtensionConfiguration.addKeyword(char[], int)to add additional keywords.simply derive from this class and useAbstractScannerExtensionConfiguration.addMacro(String, String)to add additional macros.empty macros are taken as they are. It is the task of configuration to provide the correct values.

As far as build is concerned there is no difference between errorsIMarkerGenerator.SEVERITY_ERROR_RESOURCEandIMarkerGenerator.SEVERITY_ERROR_BUILDUseErrorParserManager.findFileName(java.lang.String)for searches.useErrorParserManager.popDirectoryURI()insteadas of 5.2. This method is no longer reporting problems. The problem markers are generated after processing each line.UseICExtension.getConfigExtensionReference()instead.Use public void addMarker(org.eclipse.cdt.core.ProblemMarkerInfo problem) instead.Returns 0.Returns 0.This method is unused in CDT code base. UseISourceFinder.toLocalPath(String)or request undeprecating on the cdt-dev mailing list.Useless method that always returns "enum".replaced byIASTTranslationUnit.getNodeSelector(String).use isUnion(), isClass(), isStruct()useITranslationUnit.findSharedWorkingCopy(), or CDTUITools.getWorkingCopyManager() instead.UseFileContent.create(ITranslationUnit), instead.useITranslationUnit.getSharedWorkingCopy(IProgressMonitor, IProblemRequestor), or CDTUITools.getWorkingCopyManager() instead.useITranslationUnit.getSharedWorkingCopy(IProgressMonitor, IProblemRequestor), or CDTUITools.getWorkingCopyManager() instead.useITranslationUnit.getWorkingCopy(IProgressMonitor), or CDTUITools.getWorkingCopyManager() instead.don't use this method.use getRegisteredContentTypes() instead.Provided to achieve backwards compatibility.Has no effect.UseArrayUtil.appendAt(Class, Object[], int, Object)instead.UseCharTable.keys()instead.Deprecated as of CDT 8.1. This method returns settings supplied by MBS only.UseCdtVariableResolver.resolveToString(java.lang.String, org.eclipse.cdt.utils.cdtvariables.IVariableSubstitutor)which would do full nested expansion.UsePathUtil.equalPath(IPath, IPath)instead.Do not use this method it splits command line arguments on whitespace with no regard to quoting rules.
