org.apache.sling.event.EventUtil api is depricated in AEM 6.2

Question

Hi Team,

In one of our application, the code contains org.apache.sling.event.EventUtil and in order to find a local event in a clustered environment it uses EventUtil.isLocal(event) method. Until version AEM 6.0 it was working fine as expected. But in AEM 6.2, the above has been deprecated.

Could you please suggest any alternatives for the same?, Thanks.

Regards,

Saran

You could filter at the event handler level. If you're using annotations, add the filter line.

@Properties({ @Property(name = "event.topics", value = "com/mycompany/app/eventname", propertyPrivate = true),
@Property(name = EventConstants.EVENT_FILTER, value="(!(" + DEAConstants.PROPERTY_APPLICATION + "=*))")})

If the event is a local event, the PROPERTY_APPLICATION is not available. If it is available, it contains the application (Sling ID) of the instance where the event originated.
