Anko: Deprecate and remove methods that exist in Android KTX?

Created on 28 Apr 2018  路  4Comments  路  Source: Kotlin/anko

I'm proposing we deprecate and then remove all symbols that are duplicated by the official Android KTX library. That would simplify code completion when using both libraries and ensure the community doesn't split. What do you think?

this is surely a must do I think, will increase productivity of both libraries, as both libraries are great and must be simple to use together, and re implementing same thing with two libraries doesnt make any sense :)

@4u7 What do you think?

Yes, most of anko-commons will be deprecated at some point in favor of Android KTX. Probably closer to Android KTX release. If you wish to mark something already present in Android KTX with @Deprecated feel free to send pull request.

@4u7 Sweet, see #617. I'd also love it if you could take a look at #616 since I rebased #617 out of it.
