#7975 closed enhancement (fixed)

Legalize dojo.destroyElement()

Reported by: Eugene Lazutkin Owned by: dante
Priority: high Milestone: 1.3
Component: Core Version: 1.2.0

Description

We already have very useful dojo._destroyElement(). Let's legalize it by aliasing it to dojo.destroyElement(). Variant: dojo.destroy().

The testing done by Neil Roberts shows that this function is still relevant on IE browsers.

I've attached three patches to this ticket deprecating the use of dojo._createElement in each namespace. Dojo Core's few references definitely should go in trunk now. Dijit probably could, as few people use mixed Dijit + Base Dojo combinations (though there are probably some. dojo.destroy = dojo._destroyElement; is a solution there), but the question of DojoX patch made me hesitant. Applying the DojoX patch means every touched project is dependent on Dojo Base 1.3, and some project authors may not want that, though the same backwards-compat-alias applies in this case too, should users desiring mixing a "newer dojox project" with a "pre 1.3 dojo.js". comments?
