Note on deprecations

A tick-tock release cycle allows easy migration to new software versions. Obsolete code is marked as deprecated for one major release. Deprecated code produces compile-time warnings. These warning serve as notification to users that their code should be upgraded. The next major release will remove the deprecated code.

Gazebo GUI 6.X to 7.X

  • The environment variable IGN_GUI_PLUGIN_PATH is deprecated. Use GZ_GUI_PLUGIN_PATH instead.

  • The ignition namespace is deprecated and will be removed in future versions. Use gz instead.

  • Header files under ignition/... are deprecated and will be removed in future versions. Please use gz/... instead.

  • The gz-gui element is deprecated and will be removed. Please use gz-gui instead.

  • ignitionVersion() is deprecated and will be removed in future versions. Please use gzVersion() instead.

  • The project name has been changed to use the gz- prefix, you must use the gz prefix!

    • This also means that any generated code that use the project name (e.g. CMake variables, in-source macros) would have to be migrated.
    • Some non-exhaustive examples of this include:
      • GZ_<PROJECT>_<VISIBLE/HIDDEN>
      • CMake -config files
      • Paths that depend on the project name
  • QML import ignition.gui 1.0 is deprecated, use import gz.gui 1.0 instead.

Gazebo GUI 6.2 to 6.3

  • New QML dependencies, only needed for the NavSatMap plugin: qml-module-qtlocation, qml-module-qtpositioning

Gazebo GUI 6.1 to 6.2

  • All features from Grid3D have been incorporated into GridConfig. The code for the original Grid3D has been removed and now the installed library is just a copy of GridConfig. Existing Grid3D users shouldn't be affected and may continue to use Grid3D as before.

Gazebo GUI 5.x to 6.x

  • The Scene3D plugin is deprecated, use MinimalScene with TransportSceneManager instead.

Gazebo GUI 5.1 to 5.2

  • The Application::PluginAdded signal used to send empty strings. Now it sends the plugin's unique name.

  • The Application::PluginAdded signal used to send empty strings. Now it sends the plugin's unique name.

Gazebo GUI 3.x to 4.x

  • Use rendering4, transport9 and msgs6.
  • Deprecated gz::gui::convert to gz::common::Time. Use gz::msgs::Convert to std::chrono::steady_clock::time_point instead.

Gazebo GUI 3.10 to 3.11

  • Dialog::ReadConfigAttribute doesn't create a missing file anymore.

Gazebo GUI 3.6 to 3.7

  • The Application::PluginAdded signal used to send empty strings. Now it sends the plugin's unique name.

Gazebo GUI 2.x to 3.x

  • Use rendering3, transport8 and msgs5.

Gazebo GUI 1.x to 2.x

  • Plugin headers are no longer installed.

  • Use ignition msgs4, rendering2, and transport7.
