Deprecated API

The following tables list methods whose use is deprecated in WebObjects 4.0 and list new methods to use in their place. If you don't allow concurrent request handling, you can continue to use the deprecated methods. You'll receive a warning at run-time. If you want to allow concurrent request handling, you must change to the new methods. Use of deprecated methods raises an exception when concurrent request handling is enabled (that is, when you override WOApplication's method allowsConcurrentRequestHandling to return YES or true.)
