Libraries are commonly used to support code reuse and increase productivity. As any other system, they evolve over time, and so do their APIs. Consequently, client applications should be updated to benefit from better APIs. To facilitate this task, API elements should always be deprecated with replacement messages. However, in practice, there are evidences that API elements are deprecated without...
As any other software system, frameworks and libraries evolve over time, and so their APIs. Consequently, client systems should be updated to benefit from improved APIs. To facilitate this task and preserve backward compatibility, API elements should always be deprecated with clear replacement messages. However, in practice, there are evidences that API elements are usually deprecated without such...
Teaching programming and algorithms is a big challenge, not only in universities but also in schools and training centers. Many proposals for stimulating this process were made in the last years. Previously to this work we had developed JPlay. The JPlay framework was proposed and developed for teaching programming with the development of simple 2D games. In this paper we propose a heuristic based...
