People are probably more likely to fix their code if they're told how -- it
would be useful to have
void new_function() { }
void __attribute__((deprecated("use new_function instead")) old_function() { }
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
old_function();
}
resulting in
test.cpp: 6: warning: 'old_function' is deprecated (declared at test.cpp:2, use
new_function instead)
--
Summary: It would be useful for __attribute__((deprecated)) to
take an optional parameter
