when either: (a) use of the API is considered to be unsafe, (b) an improved alternative API is available, or (c) breaking changes to the API are expected in a future major release.</p> <p>Node.js utilizes three kinds of Deprecations:</p> <ul> <li>Documentation-only</li> <li>Runtime</li> <li>End-of-Life</li> </ul> <p>A Documentation-only deprecation is one that is expressed only within the Node.js API docs. These generate no side-effects while running Node.js. Some Documentation-only deprecations trigger a runtime warning when launched with <a href="cli.html#cli_pending_deprecation"><code>--pending-deprecation</code></a> flag (or its alternative, <code>NODE_PENDING_DEPRECATION=1</code> environment variable), similarly to Runtime deprecations below. Documentation-only deprecations that support that flag are explicitly labeled as such in the <a href="#deprecations_list_of_deprecated_apis">list of Deprecated APIs</a>.</p> <p>A Runtime deprecation will, by default, generate a process warning that will be printed to <code>stderr</code> the first time the deprecated API is used. When the <code>--throw-deprecation</code> command-line flag is used, a Runtime deprecation will cause an error to be thrown.</p> <p>An End-of-Life deprecation is used when functionality is or will soon be removed from Node.js.</p> <h2>Revoking deprecations<span><a class="mark" href="#deprecations_revoking_deprecations" id="deprecations_revoking_deprecations">#</a></span></h2> <p>Occasionally, the deprecation of an API may be reversed. In such situations, this document will be updated with information relevant to the decision. However, the deprecation identifier will not be modified.</p> <h2>List of Deprecated APIs<span><a class="mark" href="#deprecations_list_of_deprecated_apis" id="deprecations_list_of_deprecated_apis">#</a></span></h2> <p><a id="DEP0001"></a></p> <h3>DEP0001: http.OutgoingMessage.prototype.flush<span><a class="mark" href="#deprecations_dep0001_http_outgoingmessage_prototype_flush" id="deprecations_dep0001_http_outgoingmessage_prototype_flush">#</a></span></h3> <div class="api_metadata"> <details class="changelog"><summary>History</summary> <table> <tbody><tr><th>Version</th><th>Changes</th></tr> <tr><td>v4.8.6, v6.12.0</td> <td><p>A deprecation code has been assigned.</p></td></tr> <tr><td>v1.6.0</td> <td><p>Runtime deprecation.</p></td></tr> </tbody></table> </details> </div> <p>Type: Runtime</p> <p>The <code>OutgoingMessage.prototype.flush()</code> method is deprecated.
