Detecting the ObsoleteAttribute/CS0618 when compiling

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 100

Hi,

Is there any way of detecting the ObsoleteAttribute on members from referenced CLR assemblies used by X++ when compiling?

Similar to what SysObsoleteAttribute does to X++ members.

If I compile the code in C#, the warning “CS0618: '< member >' is obsolete” will be outputted, but I can’t find any trace of this warning when building X++.

Thanks,
DFA

    If the referenced assemblies are .NET, then it is not possible.

    The answers are about the check of obsolete X++ elements.

    I don't think that X++ compiler has a feature to warn about obsolete objects in referenced .NET assemblies.

    The warning messages in x++ are also different.

    You can run best-practice checks from the command line. Please check the MS document:

    Hi Judy,

    I have tried that without success on a 10.0.29 and 10.0.33.

    Hi DFA,

    Please check if you have tried build the model with Run Best Practice Checks. Dynamics 365 menu > click Build models > Options.
