[Cordova Wiki] Update of "DeprecationPolicy" by JoeBowser

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Cordova Wiki" for change notification.

The "DeprecationPolicy" page has been changed by JoeBowser:
http://wiki.apache.org/cordova/DeprecationPolicy?action=diff&rev1=13&rev2=14

Comment:
The ctx change pre-dates the Deprecation Policy and doesn't belong here.  

  See

- == deprecation: ctx ==
- 
- All the "ctx" methods have been deprecated and replaced with "cordova" methods.
- So any old code ways, for example,
- {{{
- ctx.getAssets()
- }}}
- should be updated to say
- {{{
- cordova.getActivity().getAssets()
- }}}, etc.
- 
- See
- [[http://simonmacdonald.blogspot.com/2012/07/phonegap-android-plugins-sometimes-we.html | "PhoneGap Android Plugins: Sometimes We Screw Up"]].
- 
- Should
- cordova.getContext() be replaced with cordova.getActivity().getApplicationContext() ?
