jQueryUI 1.12.1 incompatible with jQuery 3.1.1?

[cmb69]

I'm using this configuration:

$plugin_cf['jquery']['version_core']="3.1.1";
$plugin_cf['jquery']['version_ui']="1.12.1";
$plugin_cf['jquery']['version_migrate']="jquery-migrate-3.0.0.js";
$plugin_cf['jquery']['load_migrate']="true";
$plugin_cf['jquery']['autoload']="true";
$plugin_cf['jquery']['autoload_libraries']="jQuery";

In jQuery4CMSimple_XH's back-end Chrome's (but not Firefox') error console reports:

JQMIGRATE: jQuery.expr[":"] is now jQuery.expr.pseudos
JQMIGRATE: jQuery.expr.filters is now jQuery.expr.pseudos

We probably can't do much about this, but we should document this potential incompatibility.

Maybe we should deprecate jQueryUI altogether? At least I'm switching away from it (already dropped it in Pagemanager 3: cmb69/pagemanager_xh#7).

Hmm, for now we should document it. But where?

Yes, maybe. And it seems to me that it's not really used in other plugins anyway.

The release announcement of XH 1.7.0beta1 would be a start (I've just made a note). Not sure which documentation users might consult – an extreme measure would be to add a note to the configuration help texts, which might be overkill, though.

Advancedform_XH is still using jQueryUI; I'm not sure whether Jerry also uses it in some plugins.
