Deprecated Interfaces

com.jidesoft.introspector.BeanIntrospectorFactory
Please use IntrospectorFactory instead.

com.jidesoft.grid.Filter
The class is moved to com.jidesoft.filter. Please update your code to use this one under com.jidesoft.filter instead.

com.jidesoft.swing.JideMenu.MenuCreator
The createMenu method of MenuCreator should JPopupMenu as parameter. Since it's a public API we have to deprecated this one and ask users to use JideMenu.PopupMenuCustomizer instead.

Deprecated Classes

com.jidesoft.grid.AbstractFilter
The class is moved to com.jidesoft.filter. Please update your code to use this one under com.jidesoft.filter instead.

com.jidesoft.introspector.BeanIntrospectorContext
Please use IntrospectorContext instead.

com.jidesoft.introspector.BeanIntrospectorManager
Please use IntrospectorManager instead.

com.jidesoft.pivot.BigDecimalSummaryCalculator
Please use DefaultSummaryCalculator instead as DefaultSummaryCalculator supports BigDecimal as well.

com.jidesoft.swing.SplashScreen
We will not work on this component in the future. In JDK6, Sun introduced SplashScreen component which is much better because it will be shown as soon as JVM started. We suggest you to use that SplashScreen instead of this one. Hence we decided to deprecate this class.

com.jidesoft.grid.SortableTable.isPreserveSelectionsAfterSorting()

Please use IntrospectorManager.registerIntrospector(Class, Introspector)

com.jidesoft.introspector.IntrospectorManager.registerBeanIntrospector(Class, BeanIntrospector, BeanIntrospectorContext)

com.jidesoft.grid.CellEditorManager.registerEditor(Class, CellEditor)
use CellEditorManager.registerEditor(Class,CellEditorFactory). JTable don't support sharing the same instance of CellEditor. If you use this method to register a cell editor instance, it may cause problem when you try to edit two tables simultaneous. If you register a CellEditorFactory, a new cell editor will be created every time which avoids the problem of sharing cell editor.

com.jidesoft.grid.CellEditorManager.registerEditor(Class, CellEditor, EditorContext)
use CellEditorManager.registerEditor(Class,CellEditorFactory,EditorContext) JTable don't support sharing the same instance of CellEditor. If you use this method to register a cell editor instance, it may cause problem when you try to edit two tables simultaneous. If you register a CellEditorFactory, a new cell editor will be created every time which avoids the problem of sharing cell editor.

com.jidesoft.docking.DeprecatedDockingManager.setAutohideShowingFrame(DockableFrame)
This was for internal eventing and is no longer needed.

com.jidesoft.docking.DefaultDockingManager.setAutohideShowingFrame(DockableFrame)

com.jidesoft.docking.DeprecatedDockingManager.setDefaultFocusComponent(Component)
The Docking Manager doesn't have it's own focus policy. It routes all focus to the individual frames or the workspace because these components implement Refocusable. Refocusable.setDefaultFocusComponent(Component defaultFocusComponent).

The approach is to now call setDefaultFocusComponent() on Workspace or DockableFrame. This will mean that whenever the getMainContainer() (which is what is added to the user's provided content pane) receives focus it will transfer it to the active pane's (Workspace or DockableFrame) defaultFocusComponent. By default, we will use workspace.getDefaultFocusComponent and put focus on it. If you want the focus to be in a DockableFrame, you can call dockingManager.activateFrame after loadLayoutData is called.

com.jidesoft.docking.DefaultDockingManager.setDefaultFocusComponent(Component)

com.jidesoft.combobox.AbstractComboBox.setEditor(ComboBoxEditor)
Please do not use this method for AbstractComboBox. If you need to provide your own editor, please override AbstractComboBox.createEditorComponent() method instead.

the indention is now controlled by each Property. Please use Property.setIndentNonCategoryRow(boolean).

com.jidesoft.grid.TableColumnChooser.setKeepColumnOrder(boolean)
This method is not used anymore. Using TableColumnChooser to add header popup menu is replaced with TableHeaderPopupMenuInstaller class which is more powerful and flexible. Please refer to the JavaDoc of TableHeaderPopupMenuInstaller for more information.

replaced by TableFlashable.setPossibleFlashColumns(int[]).

com.jidesoft.grid.SortableTable.setPreserveSelectionsAfterSorting(boolean)
this flag will not take effection, since we will preserve selection anyway after sorting right now.

com.jidesoft.grid.QuickTableFilterField.setSearchingColumnIndex(int)
We enable multiple column filter now so this method is deprecated. Please use QuickTableFilterField.setSearchingColumnIndices(int[]) instead.

In current situation, if you invoke this method, we will make an array with length as 1 then invoke QuickTableFilterField.setSearchingColumnIndices(int[]).

com.jidesoft.grid.TableUtils.setTablePreference(JTable, String)
replaced by TableUtils.setTablePreferenceByName(javax.swing.JTable, String)

replaced by TdiGroup.updateComponent(DocumentComponent, java.awt.Component)

com.jidesoft.document.IDocumentGroup.updateComponent(DocumentComponent)
replaced by IDocumentGroup.updateComponent(DocumentComponent, java.awt.Component)

com.jidesoft.chart.Chart.updateLazyCharts()
as this has been incorporated into the repaint() method

com.jidesoft.editor.CodeEditor.xToColumn(int)
as this method doesn't consider the actual font it is used so when the font is not fix-width, this method will return the wrong result. The correct one to use is CodeEditor.xToColumn(int,int) which takes the line index.
