Annotation Interface DeprecatedPluginName
Annotates a @Plugin implementation class whose fully-qualified type name has been changed and whose old name should no longer be used to refer to it.
Plugin implementations should ideally have a single, canonical name (the fully-qualified class name), so this annotation is not intended to provide a general purpose plugin aliasing facility. Instead, it is provided as a way of "renaming a plugin" while maintaining backwards compatibility with configuration files that continue to use the old implementation class name. When a plugin implementation is instantiated using the old name a warning will be logged prompting the end user to update their configuration to use the new name.
If a plugin implementation class itself is deprecated then the @Deprecated annotation should be used on that class instead.
