Thanks Andrew! I must have missed that thread. Another item is obsolete: the `AssemblyName` method but this time I saw this thread. Nevertheless I am not sure how to override the name of the obsolete members... Any examples out there? Cheers.

It works by replacing:

pManager.Register_StringParam(String, String, String);

with

pManager.AddTextParameter(String, String, String);

Still haven't figured out how to fix the Assembly name though, this is as far as I went:

namespace CustomComp
{
    public class CustomComp_Info : GH_AssemblyInfoStub
    {
        public override string AssemblyName
        {
            get
            {
                return "CustomComp";
            }
        }
     
    }
}

Usually when a method or a class has been marked as Obsolete it has been replaced by a different method/class. In the case of Register_StringParam() it was AddTextParameter() (as the compiler warning told you). The other warning should direct you towards the Name property, which has replaced AssemblyName.

Instead of overriding AssemblyName, now override Name instead.

Thanks David, it is working now:

namespace CustomComp
{
    public class CustomComp_Info : GH_AssemblyInfo
    {
        public override string Name
        {
            get
            {
                return "CustomComp";
            }
        }
     
    }
}
