On syn 2.0, field(type = "...") will break with a not-very-informative error message.
While we can't prevent that, we can make it possible for people to switch to the new property name without needing to change anything else, so that the eventual dependency version bump is fully source-compatible.
Alternatives Considered
I debated using
DeprecationNotes
to put a warning on all uses oftype
, but decided it wasn't worth the code churn necessary to plumb that through from the options area all the way to code generation. This is already a highly specialized feature, and the fix is pretty easy once you read the release notes.
