Ambiguity on javadoc (HTMLPanel - addAndReplaceElement() )

[regnoult axel]

Hi,

I do not understand if addAndReplaceElement() is deprecated or not...because it seems that the alternative of the deprecated function is the same. Can you confirm ? (the link in the javadoc refers to eactly the same function). I just want to know if I should use this function or not...

Thanks you,

addAndReplaceElement

@Deprecated
public void addAndReplaceElement(Widget widget,
                                            Element toReplace)

Deprecated. use addAndReplaceElement(Widget, Element)

Adds a child widget to the panel, replacing the HTML element.

Parameters:

widget - the widget to be added

toReplace - the element to be replaced by the widget

If you look carefully at the source code, you'll see that there are two methods called addAndReplaceElement(Widget, Element), it's just that one of them uses com.google.gwt.dom.client.Element and the other uses com.google.gwt.user.client.Element

It's the com.google.gwt.user.client.Element version that's marked as deprecated.

In the generated javadoc, click on the link from the deprecated method and it takes you to the same deprecated method. But the source code indicates the overloaded method instead. It looks like the generated javadoc doesn't accurately reflect the source code.
