RTC SCM - API changed/removed in 7.x
When our client version was upgraded to 7.x from 6.0.6.1 , some of our SCM components was showing compilation error. When we checked in detailed, we came to know there were API changed.
In 6.x below API was supported from IBM - when there is an incoming subcomponent additions, incoming subcomponent removals or both.
SubcomponentCommonUtils.readSubcomponentData().
In 7.x, we don’t see this method anymore. This method is removed. Instead in eclipse it suggest for SubcomponentCommonUtils.parseSubcomponentData().
Our concern as follow:
1. Was there any documented circulated to notify such API change across topics.
2. Which method we need to use instead of SubcomponentCommonUtils.readSubcomponentData() method.
Accepted answer

Then I am sorry. If you would reword your question and make it clearer what you are looking for, I would not touch the question. The question above makes the impression that a supported interface was removed without notice. I could not let that sit there the way it was. If you ask for any information for which class(es) to use instead, I would be fine.
Please make sure to mention it is an internal class you have used. I am pretty sure that Geoff's suggestion is good. You could also look into the code in 6.0.6.1 and try to recreate your own helper class from the code, using supported API.
