This schedule will give a bit more time for the community to transition plugins and server-side code away from LoadLibrary. February 3rd 2020: any use of LoadLibrary will start failing.The function will continue working as before. November 13th 2019: any use of LoadLibrary will produce a warning in the output window.So the removal is going to come in three stages: Removal timelineīecause LoadLibrary has been deprecated for years we feel that we can move relatively quickly, but we want to make the transition away from this functionality as painless as possible. Given all of the above - it’s a rarely used mechanism that is expensive for us to maintain that has been deprecated for a while and easy to stop using - we have decided to remove this function entirely. Because of this, we have inadvertently broken this mechanism a few times, and it prevents development of some internal changes.Īdditionally, Studio has been warning about LoadLibrary deprecation for several years now (via Script Analysis widget). LoadLibrary has been challenging for us to support due to mechanics of how Lua library loading works on the client. There are three libraries: RbxGui, RbxStamper and RbxUtility the first two are almost never used, the last one is occasionally used by some games for helpers like RbxUtility.Create. However, we haven’t updated the list of libraries or the libraries themselves in ages. LoadLibrary is a legacy mechanism that we previously used to provide access to Roblox-maintained Lua code. UPDATE This has been postponed to January 6th the post has been updated with the new timeline. UPDATE This has been postponed once more to February 3rd. UPDATE This update is live as of February 3rd, 2020.
