[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] geanyctags: use new plugin API (#708)

[LarsGit223]

> Also is the previous API deprecated or something? The patch is kind of "why not" but I slightly fail to see "why yes" reasons.

Please also see the discussion in #703. It's purely for consistency/cleanup. I wonder if there is a new API why not move to it. Otherwise the old one will/can never be deprecated in the future. Anyway - as written in the discussion I would of course accept if you do not like to merge it.

> Maybe one question - what Geany API does this change require? Is the currently used API version specified in the plugin enough?

According to https://www.geany.org/manual/reference/legacy.html it's deprecated since Geany 1.26, don't know the API version. But it is NOT obsolete and there is NO plan to remove it. So it will just work fine.

So as writen above I will accept a "no" without any discussion and the change is only because I think it's nicer to not use a deprecated API even if support for it will be ongoing.
