This setError() method seems to come from JObject, then the JObject class is deprecated too

[810]

There is no class to replace it. JObject is a historic class which isn't really needed anymore with current PHP versions.

The error handling should instead be done using exceptions.

I had understood that, the JObject class will be removed in Joomla! 4.0 and some Kunena classes extend JObject so i'am afraid that it will will cause some issues into Kunena. For now we will have a bit of time before Joomla! 4.0 will be released

i have changed the milestone to 5.1.

there are 5 files that is using the object now

[xillibit]

I will start by removing setError()calls then i will look to remove usage of JObect

This one isn't finished, i had done a part but no all.
