Deprecated method

Some methods in the BusObj class were supported in earlier versions but are no longer supported. Use of these deprecated methods does not generate an error. However, it is highly recommended that you avoid their use and migrate existing code to the new methods. The deprecated methods might be removed in a future release.

Table 60 lists the deprecated methods for the BusObj class and the replacement methods. If you have not used Process Designer Express before, ignore this section.

All methods that took a child business object or child business object array as an input argument Get a handle to the child business object or business object array and use the methods of the BusObj or BusObjArray class

The setVerb() method, which was previously listed as deprecated, is now restored for use in mapping. Do not use it within a collaboration.
