MongoDB 2.6.0 deprecates the db.addUser() and recommends the db.createUser() command.
However, the Java API deprecates the db.addUser() method and suggests using the low-level db.command() method:
/**
* Adds or updates a user for this database
*
* @param username the user name
* @param passwd the password
* @return the result of executing this operation
* @throws MongoException
* @mongodb.driver.manual administration/security-access-control/ Access Control
* @deprecated Use {@code DB.command} to call either the addUser or updateUser command
*/
@Deprecated
public WriteResult addUser( String username , char[] passwd ){
return addUser(username, passwd, false);
}
MongoDB Java Driver API should support db.createUser() as a replacement to db.addUser() (taking into account server version).
