Removed and deprecated features in 9.12
The following Apama features are now deprecated or have been removed in Apama 9.12:
*Event Modeler is now deprecated. Support for creating and deploying scenarios will be removed in a future release. It is recommended that you use EPL or queries to build new Apama applications.
*The EngineManagement API for C is now deprecated. It is recommended that you use the EngineManagement API for C++ instead.
*The old native Universal Messaging integration is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. It is recommended that you use the new Universal Messaging connectivity plug-in instead. See also Apama integration with Universal Messaging in 9.12.
*The -r (or --rnames) and -UMconfig ( or --umConfigFile) options of the correlator executable, which pertain to the old native Universal Messaging integration, are now deprecated. Use the --config option together with one or more .yaml files and (typically) also .properties files instead.
*The um.install.dir property, which is used by the old native Universal Messaging integration to set the location of the Universal Messaging libraries in the UM-config.properties file, is now deprecated. If Universal Messaging has been installed in the same Software AG installation directory as Apama, Apama will now locate the Universal Messaging installation automatically at ${APAMA_HOME}/../UniversalMessaging and will load the Universal Messaging libraries from the appropriate subdirectory. See also Setting up Universal Messaging for use by Apama.
*The -Xconfig option of the correlator executable, which specifies a special configuration file (see Using the Apama component extended configuration file), is now deprecated in favor of YAML configuration via --config. For detailed information on configuration using YAML, see Configuring the correlator and the description of the --config option in Starting the correlator.
*As of this version, the deprecated profiling request can no longer be used with the -r option of the engine_management tool. Instead, you now have to use the cpuProfile request, which provides the same functionality. For further information, see Using the CPU profiler. See also the announcement in Removed and deprecated features in 9.10.
*When using the engine_management tool with the -r option, it is no longer possible to specify a single string, enclosed in quotation marks, which delimits multiple arguments by spaces. As of this version, it is only possible to specify the arguments as shown in the following example:
engine_management -r cpuProfile frequency
Make sure that multiple arguments are no longer enclosed in quotation marks. Quotation marks are now only used for arguments that contain spaces, such as a file name. See also the announcement in Correlator utility enhancements in 9.9.
*As of this version, the deprecated Log File Manager plug-in (LoggingManager) can no longer be used. Instead, you now have to use the built-in logging functionality. For further information, see Logging and printing. See also the announcement in Removed and deprecated features in 9.9.
*As of this version, the deprecated Enterprise Management and Monitoring (EMM) and sentinel agent features can no longer be used. It is recommended that you now use Command Central for all deployment tasks. For detailed information, see Deploying Apama Components with Command Central. See also the announcement in Removed and deprecated features in 9.10.
*The apamadoc.xml and apamadoc.bat files have been removed from the utilities directory of the Apama installation. To generate ApamaDoc without a user interface on both Windows and UNIX, you now have to use the generate-apamadoc macro from the apama-macros.xml Ant script, which is located in the etc directory of your Apama installation. For further information, see Generating ApamaDoc from an Ant script.
*As of this version, the Apama EPL Visualization tool for Software AG Designer is no longer installed with Apama. The tool is now available for download from the Apama area of the Software AG Tech Community website at https://techcommunity.softwareag.com.
