It said:

// XXX legacy write(string, encoding, offset, length) - remove in v0.13

And we're just a few versions past that :)

Perhaps instead of flat out removing this branch, we should keep it and throw instead when isFinite(offset) is false?

Buffer.fill(val, start, end) just coerces start and end to integers. This does the same with offset. Any calls that still use the old arguments (string, encoding, offset, length) will fail with an invalid encoding exception.

I can make it throw new Error("Buffer.write(string, encoding, offset, length) is no longer supported") -- do you prefer that?

@dcposch Will (string, encoding, offset) fail?

I'd prefer an explicit throw, at least for now.

I'd be fine with removing it... but let's see what @nodejs/ctc says..

@trevnorris this was yours, back in f489649, thoughts on whether it might even be used anywhere?

Personally I'd not be in such a hurry to remove things just because they can be, particularly when they don't incur much cost. But whatever.

@rvagg This legacy signature isn't even documented, and hasn't been since v0.10 IIRC. Plus it's had the deprecation warning in there for a while. I'd just like it removed b/c the argument parsing is ridiculous enough (takes up the first half of a 77 line function). But don't think it costs much performance wise leaving it there.

So +1 for removing it, but also won't be upset if it remains.

cc @ChALkeR for user land usage analysis, though this might be difficult to find out.

Update: ignore this, I was mistaken about which signature is deprecated.

Update: ignore this, I was mistaken about which signature is deprecated.

@ChALkeR Most of them don't look like the one which we are trying to deprecate here :D As I said, it would be a little tricky to search. Probably something like
/\.write\s*\(\s*'.*?'\s*,\s*'.*?'\s*,\s*\d+\s*,\s*\d+\s*\)/?

@thefourtheye Ah, I misread the change, that was a mistake on my side. Sorry. I will update this soon.

@thefourtheye Updated. Note that .write(string, encoding, offset) is also deprecated.

Once again: note that this is partial, because this is an exteremly simple search for anything that is named buf, buff, or buffer itself. Downloads count per month on the left:

@ChALkeR Now that you mentioned it, I am not sure if the change proposed in this PR would be fine. If someone is using .write(string, encoding, offset), control will go to the proposed else block and would end up giving unexpected result. Am I correct?

@thefourtheye I think that we should add an explicit throw there, and leave the if-else branches as they are.

Ya, that sounds better here. @mscdex also suggested the same. @trevnorris what do you think?

LGTM, if CI and @trevnorris are okay with this.

technically should be ``Buffer.write(string, encoding[, offset[, length]])'`, but I really don't care whether it's changed.

string, encoding fits into the current signature, so it's not deprecated. I made that mistake in the first grep :-).

What's wrong with dropping the length === undefined on the second else if? Then technically the final else should be unreachable.

@trevnorris because then if someone is still using the obsolete form, say buf.write("foo", "utf8", 10) it will silently start behaving like buf.write("foo", "utf8"). seems safer to throw an exception explaining what's wrong.

I can't see the CI because apparently it's on lockdown... LMK how it goes

@dcposch I can buy that. Maybe just put a comment as to why we're throwing. Since in the normal case we'd just ignore any trailing arguments (only exception is the recent change to Buffer constructor, which now throws if encoding is passed with a number).
