Why is CommandStack.notifyListeners deprecated? [message #225714]

I have noticed that CommandStack.notifyListeners has been marked
deprecated even though no migration path is offered and indeed GEF
internals still rely on this indirectly because they use the
addCommandStackListeners to add listeners to the list (also deprecated)
that is used to fire events using notifyListeners(). Also, the
deprecation statement for the deprecated "listeners" member unhelpfully
points to the deprecated notifyListeners() method.

What is the intention of this deprecation and what is the migration path
to ensure future API conformance?

Hi Cameron,

This was changed back in GEF 3.0 in 2004 for Bugzilla 77400.

Clients should use CommandStack.notifyListeners(Command, int) when extending
CommandStack. The API now gives the command being handled by the stack as
well as the notification state : PRE_EXECUTE, POST_EXECUTE, POST_UNDO, etc.

Cheers...
Anthony
