Schema Diff API cleanup #5622
Schema Diff API cleanup #5622
Conversation
Schema diff objects are meant to be instantiated only by schema comparators. As a cleanup of the old property-based schema comparison logic, we will eventually remove the $changedProperties parameter of the ColumnDiff class. Additionally, the following commit will mark ColumnDiff::$oldColumnName as deprecated rendering the corresponding constructor parameter obsolete.

I think it would be best to use oldColumn and oldColumnName as little as possible, and switch to fromColumn / fromColumnName as soon as possible (to minimize the diff between branches)

I wouldn't say that the from/to naming is better than old/new (this is what GNU diff uses, for example). What diff between the branches are you referring to?

I'm not saying it's better, but since we are using from/to as well, it might make sense to use the same naming everywhere.

The diff you would obtain when doing that kind of cleanup (switching to new naming) after merging up, I assumed that might have been your plan.

So if I understand it correctly, it's about the variable names being used in the code, not any sort of API? Please see the updated version of the patch.
The $oldColumnName property and the corresponding constructor parameter were relevant until doctrine#220 (2.4.0) which introduced the $fromColumn property and the corresponding constructor parameter. Now they are redundant. The same applies to getOldColumnName(). The $fromColumn property contains all the properties of the old column including the name.
