What is deprecated usage type in SAP BC-DWB-TOO - Workbench Tools: Editors, Painters, Modelers?

SAP Term: deprecated usage type

• Component: BC-DWB-TOO

• Component Name: Workbench Tools: Editors, Painters, Modelers

• Description: Individual usage types of a repository object can be specified as deprecated on the interface of a server package, which means that they should not be used for the object in question. Although these usage types can still be used in the current version of the software, they may trigger error messages or warnings depending on the error level setfor the package check to notify the user that they may be omitted from future releases. Specifying usage types as deprecated is particularly useful during transitions for example, from the old package concept to the new concept to gradually restrict the way in which an object is used. Repository objects affected by deprecated usage types can also be declared as deprecated. In any case, however, an alternative object should be specified as a replacement when defining either an individual usage type or a repository object as deprecated.
