Alternative to deprecated API

[vikalps98363233]

I am working on code refactoring, following the document Deprecated APIs | Adobe Experience Manager.

The documentation states that org.apache.commons.lang.text is deprecated and instead, Commons Lang 3 should be used.

Code Snippet

import org.apache.commons.lang.text.StrLookup;

import org.apache.commons.mail.Email;

import com.day.cq.commons.mail.MailTemplate;

Email email = mailTemplate.getEmail(StrLookup.mapLookup(emailParams), HtmlEmail.class);

Here emailParams is a map of key and value both as string. "Map<String, String> emailParams".

This getEmail method needs "StrLookup" which is only returned by "mapLookup" method provided by "org.apache.commons.lang.text.StrLookup".

The "mapLookup" method provided by "org.apache.commons.lang3.text.StrLookup" returns StrLookup<V>.  https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/text/StrLookup.html

and is not suitable for getEmail method. 

I looked into org.apache.commons.text.lookup.StringLookupFactory as well but there is no method which just returns StrLookup.

Is there any alternative ? What can be used here ? Please suggest.

Hi @vikalps98363233 ,

AFAIK, no updates have been made to https://developer.adobe.com/experience-manager/reference-materials/6-5/javadoc/com/day/cq/commons/ma... to adapt to it.

You may have to keep using this "org.apache.commons.lang.text" only. Also, please raise a support ticket so that if similar cases exist this can be reported.

Regards,

Nitesh

Hi @vikalps98363233,

https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/text/StrLookup.html

Deprecated.
as of 3.6, use commons-text StringLookupFactory instead

What about mapStringLookup?

Thanks,
