What is the difference between IContentLifecycleManager and

Hi Guys,

When I compiled my custom module for Sitefinity 4.2 I have got a lot of warnings which said that IContentLifecycleManager is now obsolete.

I *do not* use Lifecycle features in my module. However, it is a requirement of ContentServiceBase. If a custom manager does not implement IContentLifecycleManager  there is no way to use it in the services based on ContentServiceBase.

I'm wondering which interface I have to use in the custom ModuleManager class?

Thanks in advance,
Anton

Hi Anton,

The main difference between ILifecycleManager and IContentLifecycleManager is that ILiecycleManager allows to have a multilingual lifecycle for non content based items. We've rewriten the ProductsModule in the SDK with ILifecycleManager. 
About your module - you can create a module without lifecycle but it will require more work. Like you noticed the ContentServiceBase. Could you share more details about your module and is there any specific reason not have lifecycle?
