Deprecation: #106527 - markFieldAsChanged() moved to FormEngine main module 

See forge#106527

Description 

The static method markFieldAsChanged() in the module @typo3/backend/form-engine-validation is used to modify the markup in the DOM to mark a field as changed. Technically, this is unrelated to validation itself, therefore the method has been moved to @typo3/backend/form-engine.

Impact 

Calling markFieldAsChanged() from @typo3/backend/form-engine-validation will trigger a deprecation notice in the browser console.

Affected installations 

All extensions using the deprecated code are affected.

Migration 

If not already done, import the main FormEngine module and call markFieldAsChanged() from there.

Example:

- import FormEngineValidation from '@typo3/backend/form-engine-validation.js';
+ import FormEngine from '@typo3/backend/form-engine.js';

- FormEngineValidation.markFieldAsChanged(fieldReference);
+ FormEngine.markFieldAsChanged(fieldReference);
Copied!

Example compatibility layer:

import FormEngine from '@typo3/backend/form-engine.js';
import FormEngineValidation from '@typo3/backend/form-engine-validation.js';

if (typeof FormEngine.markFieldAsChanged === 'function') {
  FormEngine.markFieldAsChanged(fieldReference);
} else {
  FormEngineValidation.markFieldAsChanged(fieldReference);
}
