# Deprecation: #71917 - Deprecate the argument 'hsc' for getLL, getLLL, sL and pi_getLL

See [forge#71917](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/71917)

## Description

The parameter `$hsc` within the following methods of `\TYPO3\CMS\Lang\LanguageService` has been marked as deprecated:

-   `getLL()`
-   `getLLL()`
-   `sL()`

The parameter `$hsc` within the following method of `\TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Plugin\AbstractPlugin` has been marked as deprecated:

-   `pi_getLL()`

## Impact

Directly or indirectly using any of the methods `getLL()`, `getLLL()`, `sL()` or `pi_getLL()` with the parameter `$hsc` will trigger a deprecation log entry.

## Affected Installations

Any installation with a third-party extension calling one of the methods in its PHP code.

## Migration

If the return value of these methods is output in HTML context use `htmlspecialchars` directly to properly escape the content.
