setRootModel

@Deprecated
void setRootModel(java.lang.Object rootModel)

Deprecated. for 0.25.4 by tfmorris. There may be multiple top level packages which make up the model and the model subsystem also needs to be able to deal with more than one project at a time, so the concept of a single root model needs to be dropped.

Parameters:

rootModel - the new root model.

getRootModel

@Deprecated
java.lang.Object getRootModel()

Deprecated. for 0.25.4 by tfmorris. Use Facade.getRootElements() for now, but that may need enhancement/change to accommodate multiple projects.

the current root model.
