easy way to flag library functions as deprecated / forbidden in android studio-CodePudding

I have a mixed Java / Kotlin project in Android studio with the usual bunch of androix libraries.

Is there an easy way (short of writing custom lint/detekt/ktlint rules) to essentially deprecate certain usages of third party libraries? Assuming I have no way of actually changing the code in the library itself.

For example, the library has a method foo, I'd like all usages of that method to be flagged and break the build.

CodePudding user response：

There is a ForbiddenImport rule in detekt.

# detekt.config

ForbiddenImport:
    active: true
    imports:
        - 'kotlinx.android.synthetic.*'
        - 'com.example.3rdParty'

You can also exclude some classes from auto-import and completion. Settings > Editor > General > Auto Import This is just for developers not find the 'deprecated' or 'unwanted' imports easily.

Hope, it helps.
