NimbostratusHi Adrian,
Most of the time when they deprecate the methods and only keep them around for backward compatibility for the iControl Assembly and they will not work in higher versions because they've changed the access methods.
Example:
In v10.x.x you would access a Pool Member with the CommonIPPortDefinition, but in v11.x.x you have to access it with CommonAddressPort.
For anything you have that uses methods that deprecated I would suggest making getting ready to update them, or make your application v10/v11 aware and select which method to use based on the version of BIG-IP that you are connecting to.
