Checking Deprecated Functions

[JR10]

Been wondering, is there a way to check if a function is deprecated?

Something like:

isFunctionDeprecated(getClientName) 

Thanks.

why would you need that

Making a global functions list.

No but you could make a function to check them. Since the functions are still present you would have to create a table with the list of functions then check if a function is in that table. If the functions were removed from MTA you could simply check "if not getClientName then" but the functions still exist.

Thanks.

But, I remember a script that gets you the globals list, and it would categorize the functions into deprecated, server only, client only, etc..

Just can't find it.

well you could loop _G, and check if the function is natively from lua or not. If not, then add it to the list.

smth like this:

  
local defaults = { 
    ["_G"] = true, 
    ["_VERSION"] = true, 
    ["table"] = true, 
    ["string"] = true, 
    ["coroutine"] = true, 
    ["pairs"] = true, 
    ["ipairs"] = true 
} 
local fn = {} 
for i,v in pairs(_G) do 
    if not defaults[i] then 
       table.insert(fn, i) 
    end 
end

Doesn't make sense. Think about MTA functions which are good. Check the meaning of "deprecated".

@JR10,

I haven't heard of such script but once you find it and it's available to public, please share it here so others could use it.
