# Deprecation: #68074 - Deprecate getPageRenderer() methods

See [forge#68074](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/68074)

## Description

The following public functions have been marked as deprecated as the instance they return is a singleton:

-   `TYPO3CMSBackendControllerBackendController::getPageRenderer()`
-   `TYPO3CMSBackendTemplateDocumentTemplate::getPageRenderer()`
-   `TYPO3CMSBackendTemplateFrontendDocumentTemplate::getPageRenderer()`
-   `TYPO3CMSFrontendControllerTypoScriptFrontendController::getPageRenderer()`

## Impact

Using one of these functions will throw a deprecation message.

## Migration

As the PageRenderer implements a SingletonInterface you can get your own (shared) instance with
`TYPO3CMSCoreUtilityGeneralUtility::makeInstance(TYPO3CMSCorePagePageRenderer::class)` and work with that one.
