Method	Description
com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.ant.CheckstyleAntTask.createClasspath()	left in implementation until #12556 only to allow users to migrate to new gradle plugins. This method will be removed in Checkstyle 11.x.x .
com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.AbstractCheck.getFileContents()	Usage of this method is no longer accepted. Please use AST based methods instead.

com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.DetailAST.branchContains(int)	Usage of this method is no longer accepted. We encourage traversal of subtrees to be written per the needs of each check to avoid unintended side effects.

com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.api.FileContents.inPackageInfo()	use CheckUtil.isPackageInfo(String) for the same functionality, or use AbstractCheck.getFilePath() to process your own standards.
