What should we do with methods in deprecated category in CormasModel ? about cormas HOT 5 CLOSED

We should remove all methods that are in deprecated categories or with deprecated comments.

from cormas.

At the moment, what is important is not compatibility with old CORMAS models.
What is important now is to have something working, even if we break compatibility.

This is not a good idea to have a lot of deprecated methods. We don't even know in which CORMAS versions these methods works. We should use the Pharo deprecated API.

Action: remove old and deprecated code in the Pharo version. We will fix the old models later.

as for the issue about IndexedSet, your question leads back to another question.
Do we want to keep some king of compatibility with the models developed under cormas/vw.

Because, actually the deprecated protocol is often use to store all methods, that might be still called by old models and that we keep there when we release a new version.

So

• if we decide not to try to have a compatibility with models developed in vw, then we can delete all those deprecated methods
• if we try to have this compatibilty, we should keep them

from cormas.

We have to look at the senders of these methods. If they have no sender (or the sender is also deprecated), we can safely remove them.

Some methods like CormasModel>>updateAgents are still use in Cormas-core.
