    • 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.
