Dead and deprecated code removal
Dead and deprecated code removal
Hi guys.
I think that the program is infested by a lot of useless code. What about to anounce for plugin developers that in short time (e.g. one month) all deprecated code will be removed and do it?
What do you think about that?

Re: Dead and deprecated code removal
Which part(s) of the code do you consider useless?

Re: Dead and deprecated code removal
I think it should be clear from the topic 
Re: Dead and deprecated code removal
I was asking because I was curious as to what parts of the code are "dead" and "deprecated". I should have been more specific with my question, sorry.

Re: Dead and deprecated code removal
Yeah that sounds like a good idea 
kuroukage, the parts are marked in the code as deprecated, basically they are blocks of code that have been replaced but have been kept around so that plugins can use them.

All the depracated code is used only for backward compatibility with plugins and are useless for the progarm itself. When plugins will adopt all changes we made we can all that staf delete.

Re: Dead and deprecated code removal
Yeah I was just reading a bit about deprecated code. It's usually left in for compatibility and standards reasons. I was just curious as to which part(s) of the code he was referring to specifically. I'm also interested in learning how to write code myself. I'm just not sure which language I should start with.

The deprecated code is everywhere really, you can do a search through the code for "@Deprecated" to see it.kuroukage wrote:Yeah I was just reading a bit about deprecated code.

For learning programming I recommend starting with JavaScript (not jQuery or anything, just plain JavaScript). The reason is that it is browser-based which means you can just refresh the page to see changes instead of having to compile, plus it is super simple so it is a great way to learn programming basics (like different types of statements and loops) without a lot of other language-specific stuff to get in the way.
Once you understand programming basics you can switch between any popular language fairly easily.

Is there a website/book you can recommend as a best source for learning?SubJunk wrote:For learning programming I recommend starting with JavaScript.

W3schools was useful to me while learning
