# Breaking: #66754 - Remove RenderingContextAwareInterface {#breaking-66754}

See [forge#66754](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/66754)

## Description {#description}

The `RenderingContextAwareInterface` allowed objects to get the `RenderingContext` set while being
accessed from inside a Fluid template. This makes optimization of variable access in Fluid difficult
and seems to be an unused feature. Therefore it has been removed.

## Impact {#impact}

For implementations of `RenderingContextAwareInterface` the change breaks without any simple replacement.
Functionality would have to be replicated in userland code. But as there are no known implementations
the expected impact is rather low.

### Breaking interface changes {#breaking-interface-changes}
