Future subjunctive?

Future subjunctive?

Can a future subjunctive still be used, and if so, when? Or is it entirely obsolete? It is still treated in the reference part.

From what I have read from Lazarus our resident grammarian/grammar expert who is a native speaker wink the future subjunctive is no longer used in Spanish. it is obselete!

It was being used only in Spanish literature but has now been replaced by the present subjunctive, and as Lazarus has said, being complex, many natives do not know when and how to use it!

I hope this helps grin
