Terminally Deprecated Elements

Element	Description
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.CheckRegistrar.RegistrarContext.checkClasses()	RegistrarContext should just forward the registration and not have any getters
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.CheckRegistrar.RegistrarContext.repositoryKey()	RegistrarContext should just forward the registration and not have any getters
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.CheckRegistrar.RegistrarContext.testCheckClasses()	RegistrarContext should just forward the registration and not have any getters
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.MethodInvocationTree.symbol()	in favor of MethodInvocationTree.methodSymbol(), which returns the narrower type Symbol.MethodSymbol instead of Symbol.
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.NewClassTree.constructorSymbol()	in favor of NewClassTree.methodSymbol(), which returns the narrower type Symbol.MethodSymbol instead of Symbol.
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.PatternInstanceOfTree.variable()	Use PatternInstanceOfTree.pattern()
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.SyntaxToken.column()	for removal, since = 7.3, "column()" can be replaced by range().start().columnOffset() and "column() + 1" can be replaced by range().start().column()
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.SyntaxToken.line()	for removal, since = 7.3, use "range().start().line()". A token is not anymore on a single line since the text block feature has been introduced in the java language.
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.SyntaxTrivia.column()	for removal, since = 7.3, "column()" can be replaced by range().start().columnOffset() and "column() + 1" can be replaced by range().start().column()
org.sonar.plugins.java.api.tree.SyntaxTrivia.startLine()	for removal, since = 7.3, use range().start().line()
