  # @group Finding an application object

  ##
  # @note Bundle identifiers are case-sensitive.
  # @deprecated Use {AX::Aplication#initialize} instead.
  #
  # This is the standard way of creating an application object. It will
  # launch the app if it is not already running and create the
  # accessibility object.
  #
  # However, this method is a bit of a hack in cases where the app is not
  # already running; I've tried to register for notifications, launch
  # synchronously, etc., but there is always a problem with accessibility
  # not being ready right away.
  #
  # If this method fails to find an app with the appropriate bundle
  # identifier then it will raise an exception. If the problem was not a
  # typo, then it might mean that the bundle identifier has not been
  # registered with the system yet and you should launch the app once
  # manually.
  #
  # @example
  #
  #   application_with_bundle_identifier 'com.apple.mail' # wait a few seconds
  #   application_with_bundle_identifier 'com.marketcircle.Daylite4'
  #
  # @param bundle [String] a bundle identifier
  # @return [AX::Application,nil]

    $stderr.puts "#{__method__} is DEPRECATED: Use AX::Application.new instead"

        if app_running?(bundle) && (app = try_wrapping(bundle))
          return app
        else
          sleep 1
        end
      end
    else
      raise ArgumentError, "Could not launch app matching bundle id `#{bundle}'"
    end
    nil
  end

  ##
  # @deprecated Directly initialize an {AX::Application} instance instead
  #             (e.g. `AX::Application.new('Terminal')`).
  #
  # Get the accessibility object for an application given its localized
  # name. This will only work if the application is already running.
  #
  # @example
  #
  #   application_with_name 'Mail'
  #
  # @param [String] name name of the application to launch
  # @return [AX::Application,nil]
  def application_with_name name
    $stderr.puts "#{__method__} is DEPRECATED: Use AX::Application.new instead"
