AEM 6.2 depcreated method

[umeshj24393]

JackrabbitSession session = (JackrabbitSession) repository.loginAdministrative(null);

I am using this method in my bundle and  it works.

Why it is working if it is depcreated?

Any issue in using it ?

Thanks

No issue other than a future version may drop it, However for now - it works.

Two things here:

1. Try to avoid admin sessions if you can

2. Since 6.0 there is a preferred way to get this, see this article for more details:
