kotlin suppress warning deprecated for Android

In my Kotlin Android project, I am using a function that has been deprecated starting from api 23, which is quite recent. So I need a way to disable those deprecated warnings. Is there an easy way to do so?

Solution

  • Use @Suppress annotation with argument "DEPRECATION":

    @Suppress("DEPRECATION")
someObject.theDeprecatedFunction()

    Instead of a single statement, you can also mark a function, a class or a file (@file:Suppress("DEPRECATION") in its beginning) with the annotation to suppress all the deprecation warnings issued there.

    In IntelliJ IDEA this can also be done through Alt+Enter menu with caret placed on code with deprecation warning.
