Toolkit: preparing to remove dependency towards Unity.Actions

 

If your app is based only on toolkit's Action component and you are not
importing/using Unity Actions at all, you can ignore this mail.

Hello All,

We are evaluating the removal of Unity Actions dependency from the toolkit.
This would mean that the components used now by the toolkit will appear as
components exported by the toolkit itself (i.e not from Unity.Actions).
These components are:
- Action (coming from Unity, not to be confused with toolkit's Action
component)
- ActionContext
- ActionManager

The API will be the same so no API break will happen, all you would need to
do is to remove Unity.Actions import from your QML documents.

Unity Actions API is pretty inactive nowadays, and toolkit is the only one
so far using it - as far as we know. And we would like to remove an
unnecessary dependency from it.

Remember, no API break will be introduced with this move. Just make sure
your app doesn't use Unity Actions anymore.

Thanks,
Zsombor
