             Summary: [qmf] Add deprecation warnings to the C++ Agent/Console API headers
                 Key: QPID-5369
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5369
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Qpid Managment Framework
    Affects Versions: 0.24
            Reporter: Ken Giusti
            Assignee: Ken Giusti
             Fix For: 0.26


>From the users@qpid.apache.org mail thread:

Hi All,

I sent this email about a month ago with no replies to date.  So I'd thought I'd re-ping the list.  Is anyone using these libraries?

If not, then I'd like to propose that we mark them as Deprecated in our upcoming 0.26 release.

I volunteer adding the appropriate code warning directives to the build, so any code that attempts to include these APIs will issue deprecation warnings at compile time.  We'll leave them available in the code for 0.26 (and I think at least one more release - Justin?), and if the warnings reveal a large user base, we can "un-deprecate" them.

But in order to really stand behind this code, we'll have to invest some time in building unit tests for them.  AFAIK, this stuff is not getting any test coverage right now.

Opinions sought!

thanks,

-K

> Hi All,

> Before I start investing time working on
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5226 and
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4981, I was wondering if anyone
> actually uses these C++ libraries.
>
> As far as I can tell, the code hasn't seen any serious development in over
> two years.   That, and given that there are no unit tests run on that code
> (QPID-4981), I'm wondering if this code is actually being used.
>
> Please let me know,
