Joomla 3 Registry :: loadJSON

Question

I'm working through the tutorial to write a component for Joomla 3. Last complete Joomla 3 lesson . The part that I'm busy with is Developing a MVC Component/Adding configuration. So I look at the 2.5 tutorial but it uses a deprecated function called Registry::loadJSON()

Where can I find info on what to use? (I've googled, a lot, but can't find any info).

Answer 1

blush It is in the comment

// loadJSON is @deprecated    12.1  Use loadString passing JSON as the format instead.
//$params->loadString($this->item->params, 'JSON');

The only thin is that $this->item->params should be $this->params (This is also in the comments)
