"build.scala" is deprecated

[DerLump]

@lastland Hi, thanks a lot, "Scala-Forklift" is really great!

I have one suggestion, the "build.scala" is deprecated now as far as I know. I would suggest to only use the "build.sbt" for the template and the example. It also works with the sub-projects, I tried it already. If you agree, I can make a commit for both of them.

Have a nice day!

Hi @DerLump,

Thanks for reporting for this! I'm glad that you like Scala-Forklift.

I will look into this issue. And a pull request is always welcome if you are willing to contribute! 😃

@DerLump, would you mind telling me where I can find the official announcement of deprecating "build.scala"?

@lastland thanks for your answer! This is a merged pull request of "sbt": https://github.com/sbt/sbt/pull/2524 it says, that the "Build.scala" is removed from the common classpath.

This is a "Google Groups" discussion about the deprecation of the "Build.scala" file: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/sbt-dev/S-pr2nZQ3KY

Here: http://www.scala-sbt.org/1.0/docs/Full-Def.html it tells you right at the beginning: "This page describes an old style of .scala build definition. In the previous versions of sbt, .scala was the only way to create multi-project build definition, but sbt 0.13 added multi-project .sbt build definition, which is the recommended style."

Or in this video: https://www.parleys.com/tutorial/road-sbt-1-0-paved-server-1 around 30:00:00, they talk about it.

I'm not quite sure if it is deprecated already, but at least it seems like it's gonna be deprecated soon.

I will do a pull request as soon as possible, thank you! :)

Thanks for the links!

I will keep this issue open for now because the file project\build.scala also needs to be replaced.
