deprecated(3)

📦 version 3.1.3, in fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ NAME ✨

deprecated — the Deprecated List, aka the Coin glow-down list 💅

okay bestie, gather round, because this page is basically the "these are getting cut in the next season" announcement for the Coin library. Every single thing listed here is on its way out, and you do not want your code depending on it unless you love rewriting things later. No cap.

🎀 Deprecated Members 🎀

Each one comes with its own little "here's the tea" note about why and when it's going away. Read the notes, bestie, they're the whole point.

💔 Will not be available in Coin 4

These four? They're getting fully removed in Coin 4. Not deprecated-and-hanging-around, not "we'll think about it" — gone. If your code touches them, it's giving "we'll deal with it later" and later is gonna be rough 😭

  • SoRenderManager::attachClipSensor(SoNode *const sceneroot) — Will not be available in Coin 4
  • SoRenderManager::attachRootSensor(SoNode *const sceneroot) — Will not be available in Coin 4
  • SoRenderManager::detachClipSensor(void) — Will not be available in Coin 4
  • SoRenderManager::detachRootSensor(void) — Will not be available in Coin 4
🫶 Friendly heads up: "will not be available in Coin 4" is not a vibe, it's a deadline. Plan accordingly.

🙈 Will be made private in a later version of Coin

These two are a little different, bestie. They're not being deleted — they're being shoved behind the curtain 🎭. In a later version of Coin they get made private, which means if you're calling them from outside, your access is getting revoked. Iconic behaviour, honestly.

  • SoRenderManager::nodesensorCB(void *data, SoSensor *) — Will be made private in a later version of Coin
  • SoRenderManager::prerendercb(void *userdata, SoGLRenderAction *action) — Will be made private in a later version of Coin
💀 TL;DR: four of these vanish in Coin 4, two of these go private in a later Coin. Either way, the clock is ticking and she is not waiting for you.

that's the whole page, bestie — every member, every signature, every warning, all accounted for 🦋

mwah 💖 this one's from Coin, Version 3.1.3 — go forth and stop using deprecated stuff, ily, bye 🎀✨
