Deprecations

Java code, taglibs or properties may be been deprecated or removed in newer Liferay versions. This plugin offers several inspections to check for deprecations or removals. If possible, a quickfix is offered to fix the problems.

The following areas are checked

• Java code
  • Check for moved or removed classes in import statements
  • Check for moved or removed method calls in Liferay APIs
  • Check for methods moved to other classes
• JSP files
  • Check for removed or changed Taglibs
  • Check for moved or removed classes in <@page import> statements
  • Check for moved or removed method calls in Liferay APIs
  • Check for methods moved to other classes

  • Check for moved or removed classes in import statements
  • Check for moved or removed method calls in Liferay APIs
  • Check for methods moved to other classes
• Freemarker templates

  • Check for obsolete, renamed or moved properties inside system-xxx.properties
  • Check for matching liferay versions key inside liferay-plugin-package.properties
• XML files
  • Checks for matching DTD or Schema versions based on the used liferay version
• Maven Dependencies
  • Checks if service-builder and rest-builder plugins match the used liferay version
  • Checks if portal-web dependency matches the used liferay version
