Deprecation history
See the below table for information on deprecations in current and past SST-Core releases.
| Item | Deprecated | Removed | Suggested alternative | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
StatisticBase::statistic_type_name_ | 15.1 | 17.0 | StatisticBase::getStatisticTypeName() | The StatisticBase class will no longer store type names. Statistic classes are required to implement getStatisticTypeName() instead. This change only affects custom statistic types. |
StatisticBase::setStatisticTypeName() | 15.1 | 17.0 | None | StatisticTypeNames will be constant for a given Statistic type and no longer be modifiable on a per-statistic basis. |
Event::Handler2<Class, Func> | 16.0 | 17.0 | Event::Handler<Class, Func> | The temporary type Handler2 is renamed to 'Handler' in SST 16.0. |
Clock::Handler2<Class, Func> | 16.0 | 17.0 | Clock::Handler<Class, Func> | The temporary type Handler2 is renamed to 'Handler' in SST 16.0. |
| All BaseComponent functions that return a TimeConverter* | 15.0 | 16.0 | In SST 16.0, these functions return a TimeConverter (no pointer). Construct a local TimeConverter from the returned TimeConverter* to avoid code breaks. | Applies to getDefaultTimeBase, getTimeConverter, registerClock, registerTimeBase, reregisterClock, unregisterClock |
| All BaseComponent functions that accept a TimeConverter* | 15.0 | 16.0 | Change the TimeConverter* to a TimeConverter | Applies to configureLink, configureSelfLink, getCurrentSimTime, getNextClockCycle, setDefaultTimeBase |
| All Link functions that return a TimeConverter* | 15.0 | 16.0 | In SST 16.0, these functions return a TimeConverter (no pointer). Construct a local TimeConverter from the returned TimeConverter* to avoid code breaks. | Applies to getDefaultTimeBase |
| All Link functions that accept a TimeConverter* | 15.0 | 16.0 | Change the TimeConverter* to a TimeConverter | Applies to addRecvLatency, addSendLatency, setDefaultTimeBase, send |
Event::Handler<Class> | 14.0 | 16.0 | Event::Handler2<Class, Func> | The new type Handler2 will be renamed to 'Handler' in SST 16.0. |
Clock::Handler<Class> | 14.0 | 16.0 | Clock::Handler2<Class, Func> | The new type Handler2 will be renamed to 'Handler' in SST 16.0. |
Simulation::getSimulation() | 13.0 | 14.0 | Use direct APIs to access simulation state which are available through element and other base classes | |
BaseComponent::getSimulation() | 13.0 | 14.0 | Use direct APIs to access simulation state which are available through element and other base classes | |
