loadMetadataFromResource

@Deprecated
public static RegionMetadata loadMetadataFromResource(Class<?> clazz,
                                                      String name)
                                               throws IOException

Deprecated.

Loads a set of region metadata from an XML file stored as a resource of the classloader used to load the given class.

Parameters:

clazz - the class to use as a base for the resource

Deprecated.

Loads a set of region metadata from an arbitrary InputStream containing an XML file.

Parameters:

stream - the stream to load from

Returns:

the loaded region metadata

Throws:

IOException - on error reading from the stream

init

@Deprecated
public static void init()

Deprecated.

in favor of initialize()

This method no longer attempts to retrieve region metadata from CloudFront, as that file is no longer being maintained and the version bundled with the SDK is likely to be more up-to-date.

It's deprecated to signal that it no longer has any possibility of retrieving a newer set of metadata than was previously loaded. If you are simply wanting to reinitialize from the bundled region metadata, call initialize. If you want to maintain your own remote copy of the region metadata and periodically refresh it at runtime, call initializeFromURI.
