Deprecated Exceptions
net.sf.saxon.trans.DynamicError
          since 9.0 - use the superclass XPathException instead 
net.sf.saxon.trans.StaticError
          since 9.0: use the superclass, XPathException 
 

Deprecated Methods
net.sf.saxon.sxpath.XPathEvaluator.build(Source)
          since 8.9. The preferred way to build a source document is to use Configuration.buildDocument(javax.xml.transform.Source) 
net.sf.saxon.query.StaticQueryContext.clearPassiveNamespaces()
          since 9.0 - use StaticQueryContext.clearNamespaces() 
net.sf.saxon.ant.AntTransform.configureLiaison(File)
          since Ant 1.7 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathEvaluator.createExpression(String)
          since Saxon 8.9 - use XPathEvaluator.compile(String) 
net.sf.saxon.query.StaticQueryContext.declarePassiveNamespace(String, String, boolean)
          since 9.0. Use StaticQueryContext.declareNamespace(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) 
net.sf.saxon.expr.Expression.display(int, PrintStream, Configuration)
          since 9.0 - use the explain method 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathExpressionImpl.evaluate()
          since 9.0. This method is not present in the JAXP interface. Either use the JAXP methods such as XPathExpressionImpl.evaluate(Object, QName), or use the Saxon XPath API instead of JAXP. 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathEvaluator.evaluate(String)
          since Saxon 8.9 - use the various method defined in the JAXP interface definition 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathExpressionImpl.evaluateSingle()
          since 9.0. This method is not present in the JAXP interface. Either use the JAXP methods such as XPathExpressionImpl.evaluate(Object, QName), or use the Saxon XPath API instead of JAXP. 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathEvaluator.evaluateSingle(String)
          since Saxon 8.9 - use the methods defined in the JAXP interface 
net.sf.saxon.query.XQueryExpression.getController()
          since 8.5.1 - use newController() 
net.sf.saxon.AugmentedSource.getEntityResolver()
          since 9.1 (setting an EntityResolver has never had any effect) 
com.saxonica.schema.UserDefinedType.getLocalName()
          since 9.0: use the equivalent method UserDefinedType.getName() 
com.saxonica.schema.AttributeDecl.getNamespace()
          since 9.0: use the renamed method getTargetNamespace() 
com.saxonica.schema.ElementDecl.getNamespaceURI()
          since 9.0: use the renamed method getTargetNamespace() 
net.sf.saxon.om.Navigator.isWhite(CharSequence)
          since Saxon 8.5: use Whitespace.isWhite(java.lang.CharSequence) 
net.sf.saxon.s9api.XdmItem.newAtomicValue(String, ItemType)
          since 9.1. This factory method duplicates the constructor XdmAtomicValue.XdmAtomicValue(String, ItemType) which should be used in preference 
net.sf.saxon.value.DurationValue.normalizeDuration()
          since 9.0 - the method does nothing 
net.sf.saxon.sxpath.XPathExpression.rawIterator(Source)
          since 8.9 - use XPathExpression.iterate(net.sf.saxon.sxpath.XPathDynamicContext) 
net.sf.saxon.query.QueryResult.serialize(NodeInfo, Result, Properties, Configuration)
          since 8.9; use QueryResult.serialize(NodeInfo, Result, Properties) instead. 
net.sf.saxon.query.DynamicQueryContext.setContextNode(NodeInfo)
          From Saxon 8.7, the method DynamicQueryContext.setContextItem(Item) is preferred 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathExpressionImpl.setContextNode(NodeInfo)
          since 9.0. Using this method is not thread-safe. Use a method instead such as XPathExpressionImpl.evaluate(Object, QName) that allows the context node to be specified as a parameter to the call. 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathEvaluator.setContextNode(NodeInfo)
          since Saxon 8.9 - use the various method defined in the JAXP interface definition, which allow a NodeInfo object to be supplied as the value of the Source argument 
net.sf.saxon.AugmentedSource.setEntityResolver(EntityResolver)
          since 9.1 (this method has never had any effect, other than allowing the EntityResolver to be retrieved using the getEntityResolver() method) 
net.sf.saxon.Controller.setPrincipalSourceDocument(DocumentInfo)
          From Saxon 8.7, replaced by Controller.setInitialContextItem(Item) 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathExpressionImpl.setSortKey(XPathExpressionImpl)
          since 9.0. This method is not present in the JAXP interface. The recommended way to get a sorted result is to use XQuery instead of XPath. 
net.sf.saxon.sxpath.XPathEvaluator.setStripSpace(boolean)
          since 8.9. The preferred way to build a source document is to use Configuration.buildDocument(javax.xml.transform.Source) 
net.sf.saxon.xpath.XPathEvaluator.setStripSpace(boolean)
          since 8.9. The preferred way to define options for the way in which source documents are built is to use the class AugmentedSource for any of the methods expecting a Source object. 
net.sf.saxon.Controller.unravel(Source, Configuration)
          since 9.0: use Configuration.unravel(javax.xml.transform.Source) 
 

Deprecated Constructors
net.sf.saxon.StandardURIResolver()
          since 8.7 
net.sf.saxon.expr.XPathContextMajor(Item, Configuration)
          since 9.0 - use XPathContextMajor.XPathContextMajor(Item, Executable)
