Scala example source code file (deprecatedInheritance.scala)

This example Scala source code file (deprecatedInheritance.scala) is included in my "Source Code Warehouse" project. The intent of this project is to help you more easily find Scala source code examples by using tags.

All credit for the original source code belongs to scala-lang.org; I'm just trying to make examples easier to find. (For my Scala work, see my Scala examples and tutorials.)

/** An annotation that designates that inheriting from a class is deprecated.
 *
 *  This is usually done to warn about a non-final class being made final in a future version.
 *  Sub-classing such a class then generates a warning. No warnings are generated if the
 *  subclass is in the same compilation unit.
 *
 *  @param  message the message to print during compilation if the class was sub-classed
 *  @param  since   a string identifying the first version in which inheritance was deprecated
 *  @since  2.10
 *  @see    [[scala.deprecatedOverriding]]
