According to docs WM_PARENTNOTIFY seems to be deprecated, this sounds unusual but if this is the case then what API does replace it?
WM_PARENTNOTIFY message
It's not deprecated, you just happen to hit a bit outdated link.
The most recent I believe is this one.
You seem to have gotten confused by the disclaimer on this documentation entry. There are two parts to it:
We're no longer updating this content regularly.
This refers to the documentation itself. It got frozen at some point, when Microsoft decided to change their documentation site for the n-th time (with n > 3). Though it's probably the second part that had you confused:
Check the Microsoft Product Lifecycle for information about how this product, service, technology, or API is supported.
Since this documentation no longer receives updates, there's no promise made as to whether the content still applies. It could (and generally is) still accurate, but it could be wrong or outdated as well, and you would need to check elsewhere.
That elsewhere is here: WM_PARENTNOTIFY. It would certainly be nice to have the old documentation auto-redirect to the new content (and sometimes this works, too, easily identifiable by a query string that contains the redirectedfrom=MSDN parameter). If in doubt you can identify up-to-date documentation by an Edit link at the top right corner.

In this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPHKWsZK2Jc&list=PLvv0ScY6vfd-p1gSnbQhY7vMe2rng0IL0&index=10) from about a year ago, there is example code on the SDL_CreateWindow function documentation page. I have seen other posts talking about the SDL examples.
If you look at the documentation now it is the same minus the example code
https://wiki.libsdl.org/SDL2/SDL_CreateWindow
Am I blind or is there no longer any example code on the SDL2 wiki?
If not, does anybody know what the reasons for removing it are?
I expect that
There are some official examples somewhere
If they were removed from the official wiki they would at least be placed in a 'legacy' repo or something like that.
A Google (DuckDuckGo) search gives only third party examples and, aside from a few forum posts, no mention of there ever being any examples on the wiki.
In 2022, the Wiki migrated from MoinMoin to ghwikipp. With that came a host of breaks and bugs. Your issue specifically is covered under issue #233.
The images were also broken, but that issue shows a workaround for viewing the Wiki in working form: use archive.org on wiki.libsdl.org, not wiki.libsdl.org/SDL2 where it is currently hosted. This gives you your examples back.
e.g. like this
If you have some sort of MediaWiki viewer program, you can also just pull an old revision from the Repo and read it offline. Even Github's MarkDown viewer isn't terrible. Caveat that new changes won't be reflected.
They promise us that it will be fixed at some point, and they do seem to be working hard on it. The only hardfix is either to (a) wait, or (b) help them finish their migration.
Is anyone aware of how to retrieve the exact version (major, minor, patch) that a specific feature was added/removed/altered to the Ruby language?
Obviously one could comb through the history to find out, which is not ideal, and can be cumbersome to navigate. Was curious if anyone might know a better way to do it, as the documentation doesn't state when a method, class, etc. was added.
When documenting my own gems with YARD, it is easy to just add a #since tag to clearly show when something was added, but the Ruby API doesn't seem to have any such mechanism in its own documentation.
When writing gems, it is obviously handy to know such details when managing dependencies, and I was hoping there was a simpler solution, such as simply typing a method name into a website, and seeing the exact version it was added.
To clarify, basically a "changelog" for any item. For example, type in method name, see log of when it was added, changed, deprecated, removed, etc.
A prime example would be something akin to .NET Core's Reverse Package Search.
I was just doing this, unfortunately my answer is what you were hoping to avoid.
I was looking through history, but able to use GitHub's handy Blame feature to help track down when a specific line was edited. With this I could open the file in question click "Blame" and see when it was last edited/created.
Was a great way to track down when Exception2MessageMapper was added to the standard library. It was 17 years ago, as part of v1.4.0:

We are working on FHIR questionnaires and I wonder if there is already a library with definitions of FHIR questionnaires. I found GCS example https://www.hl7.org/fhir/questionnaire-example-gcs.html. Is there any place where I can find wider set of such definitions? If not, is it planned to be somehow created / maintained? I can see having such set published as something valuable for the community.
In theory, the registry that FHIR.org is standing up in the next few months could be extended to this purpose, but I'm not aware of that being in the near-term plans. And it's not something that exists yet. You could submit a change proposal (link at the bottom of each page in the spec) to ensure this idea gets formal consideration
I'm using both scrollTo and the "child"-plugin serialScroll quite frequently, and like them because they
Actually SCROLL things, rather than animating css-properties (margin/position etc)
Are flexible and can be used in many different situations, unlike lots of other scroller/sliders that adds a bunch of bells and whistles that you don't really need.
Thing is, the plugins haven't been updated since 2009, and although they still work just fine, regardless of jquery version, there are things that could need improving (like the ability to change settings after initilaisation), and overall it doesn't fell optimal to use a 3 year old plugin, solid and stable as it is.
Does anyone have a suggestion of other plugins that might do the same thing, perhaps better?
http://flesler.blogspot.se/2007/10/jqueryscrollto.html
This is an old question, but for the record, as Shauna said, the plugins aren't outdated, OP might have been looking at Google code hosting which is indeed out of date.
The plugin is now hosted on Github. There's no much of a need to update it too often given it's very stable already, but I do land some commits every now and then when needed.
I don't have a suggestion for anything better (even Google is coming up with Flesler's plugin or hand-written from base JavaScript or jQuery), but Flesler is still updating the plugin. You can find the latest version in GitHub.
I know some of the tutorials for creating Xcode project templates, for example this one here: http://robnapier.net/blog/project-templates-364
This is the best one I could find. All others basically repeat the same info, or are no longer up to date, or worse tell me that even they don't know what they're doing. Possibly useful tools that are linked to here and in other places are no longer available.
I keep running into roadblocks, and would like to gather as much information as possible on the process of creating Xcode project templates. Info that is most importantly up to date (at least it must be relevant for Xcode 3 or higher).
For example, what I'd like to see is:
a description of the
TemplateChooser.plist and similar
plist files and what these options do
(in my case, once I add a
TemplateChooser.plist, my project
disappears from the Xcode project
template list)
how to create a project template that references another .xcodeproj (when I do that, the other .xcodeproj appears in the project template list even though it doesn't use the special naming convention)
processes that can be applied, for example is it possible to run a script during the creating of a project from a template? This would be useful to unzip certain files into the newly created project.
If you have the answer or suggestions to any of the issues above, I'd appreciate that. Otherwise any link to good Xcode project template resources would be highly recommended. Especially if there is an official documentation from Apple - I haven't found one yet which seems to imply that project templates are undocumented.
Have you seen these:
http://www.sodeso.nl/?p=895
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/iPhone/CreatingXcodeProject.aspx
If you say you have searched, I'm pretty sure you've already seen the links but these are the best resources I could find with my 'googlabilities'
You might try contact this guy - http://linkedin.com/in/mottishneor he has some related messages around the web
The links suggested by FX are also not bad at all!
There is indeed little XCode template info out there. What I have found of interest are the following links (I documented myself on the topic, but haven't yet gone any further):
a Google Code search reveals a few examples, but not much
in particular, I found interesting to look at the code provided by Three20; they have some basic examples, like here
referencing another project worked for me, so maybe you could open a specific question about that giving more details?
there is information scattered on the Apple mailing-lists
there is no official documentation from Apple, as is evidenced by the lack of results to this query
I'm sorry if this is not a Enlighting, concise answer. As you said, it's not well documented, and sources are all over the place. I just hope I could highlight some places to find information that your own searches might not have reached :)
I don't have a Mac anymore, so this is as much as I can give you without testing this myself. As far as I can tell, Xcode templates are undocumented by Apple.
This guy has some guides for messing with Xcode templates but the info is pretty sparse. My suggestion for working with templateChooser.plist is to try to only edit that file in the interface builder.
This guide is a good example of how to add a reference to another .xcodeproj. For the reason you were having trouble adding a reference to your project we probably need more information.
If you scroll way down in this doc you can that each template already includes a script called myscript.sh. This script will show up in the scripts menu for projects built with that template. That isn't quite as convenient as running scripts automatically, but it's better than nothing.
In conclusion, Xcode template documentation is a nightmare. It looks like there are a lot of powerful features there, but they are obscured because of lack of user friendlyness and because documentation lags far behind Apples updates of Xcode. It just doesn't seem to be a priority for them. I hope this helps.
