Deprecated Interfaces

Interface	Description
org.openide.cookies.ConnectionCookie	Should no longer be used.
org.openide.cookies.FilterCookie	Use Looks instead.

Deprecated Classes

Class	Description
org.openide.nodes.IndexedCustomizer	Better to use Index.Support.showIndexedCustomizer(org.openide.nodes.Index) which behaves better with the window system.

Deprecated Fields

Field	Description
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.systemActions	Override Node.getActions(boolean) instead of using this field.
org.openide.nodes.Node.Handle.serialVersionUID	Only public by accident.

Deprecated Methods

Method	Description
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.createActions()	Override Node.getActions(boolean) instead.
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.getActions()	Override Node.getActions(boolean) instead.
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.getDefaultAction()	Use AbstractNode.getPreferredAction() instead.
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.setCookieSet(CookieSet)	just use getCookieSet().add(...) instead
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.setDefaultAction(SystemAction)	Override AbstractNode.getPreferredAction() instead.
org.openide.nodes.AbstractNode.setIconBase(String)	Use AbstractNode.setIconBaseWithExtension(java.lang.String)
org.openide.nodes.Children.Keys.add(Node[])	Do not use! Just call Children.Keys.setKeys(Collection) with a larger set.
org.openide.nodes.Children.Keys.remove(Node[])	Do not use! Just call Children.Keys.setKeys(Collection) with a smaller set.
org.openide.nodes.FilterNode.Children.add(Node[])
org.openide.nodes.FilterNode.Children.remove(Node[])
org.openide.nodes.FilterNode.getActions()
org.openide.nodes.FilterNode.getContextActions()
org.openide.nodes.FilterNode.getDefaultAction()
org.openide.nodes.Node.getActions()	Use getActions (false) instead.
org.openide.nodes.Node.getContextActions()	Use getActions (true) instead.
org.openide.nodes.Node.getDefaultAction()	Use Node.getPreferredAction() instead.
org.openide.nodes.Node.setHidden(boolean)	Has no effect. To make a node disappear, simply remove it from the children of its parent. For example, you might call Children.Keys.setKeys(Collection) with a smaller collection.
org.openide.nodes.NodeOp.getDefaultActions()	Do not use this method. It is useless now.
org.openide.nodes.NodeOp.setDefaultActions(SystemAction[])	Useless.
org.openide.util.actions.NodeAction.actionPerformed(ActionEvent)	Using a special action event in this way is deprecated. Better is to use createContextAwareInstance(org.openide.util.Lookup) and pass a lookup containing all desired Node instances.
org.openide.util.actions.NodeAction.performAction()	Do not call this programmatically. Use createContextAwareInstance(org.openide.util.Lookup) to pass in a node selection. Do not override this method.
