Glass Mapper GetLayoutItem depreciated method

Question

We are updating GlassMapper from 4 to 5.

Since the GlassController is depreciated in new version and we have used GetLayoutItem in many places. Can it be replaced with MvcContext.GetContextItem from MVCContext class?

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks

GlassView and GlassController got deprecated since v5. Have a look at Glass.Mapper.Sc.Web.Mvc.IMvcContext, you should now be using the methods provided there to get the datasource, context and rendering items:
