Purpose

The module MLReplaceDeprecatedAPI can warn or replace ML deprecated API usage on recursive file trees.

It is a simple whole-word parser, so it may replace more than anticipated; make sure to review the code after applying replacements.

Details

Note: The Warn mode will report more than the replace mode will replace, since some replacements are ambiguous.

Warning: If this tool runs in Replace mode, it will replace text in your files without backups.
