Deprecated API

The Motif Look and Feel is deprecated with the intent to remove it in some future release. It is recommended to use javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel instead.

The sensitivity levels were historically used by polling-based WatchService implementations to configure the polling interval. They are are no longer used. The WatchService implementations in the JDK ignore these WatchEvent modifiers if they are specified when registering a directory to be watched.

The Applet API is deprecated, no replacement.

Finalization has been deprecated for removal. See java.lang.Object#finalize for background information and details about migration options.

The Applet API is deprecated. See the java.applet package documentation for further information.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory valueOf(boolean) is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance. Also consider using the final fields TRUE and FALSE if possible.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory valueOf(byte) is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory valueOf(char) is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use parseDouble(String) to convert a string to a double primitive, or use valueOf(String) to convert a string to a Double object.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory valueOf(float) is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use parseFloat(String) to convert a string to a float primitive, or use valueOf(String) to convert a string to a Float object.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use parseInt(String) to convert a string to a int primitive, or use valueOf(String) to convert a string to an Integer object.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use parseLong(String) to convert a string to a long primitive, or use valueOf(String) to convert a string to a Long object.

Finalization has been deprecated for removal. See java.lang.Object#finalize for background information and details about migration options.

When running in a JVM in which finalization has been disabled or removed, no objects will be pending finalization, so this method does nothing.

It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use parseShort(String) to convert a string to a short primitive, or use valueOf(String) to convert a string to a Short object.

This method is only useful in conjunction with the Security Manager, which is deprecated and subject to removal in a future release. Consequently, this method is also deprecated and subject to removal. There is no replacement for the Security Manager or this method.

This method was originally specified to "stop" a victim thread by causing the victim thread to throw a ThreadDeath. It was inherently unsafe. Stopping a thread caused it to unlock all of the monitors that it had locked (as a natural consequence of the ThreadDeath exception propagating up the stack). If any of the objects previously protected by these monitors were in an inconsistent state, the damaged objects became visible to other threads, potentially resulting in arbitrary behavior. Usages of stop should be replaced by code that simply modifies some variable to indicate that the target thread should stop running. The target thread should check this variable regularly, and return from its run method in an orderly fashion if the variable indicates that it is to stop running. If the target thread waits for long periods (on a condition variable, for example), the interrupt method should be used to interrupt the wait. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?.

Thread#stop() was originally specified to "stop" a victim thread by causing the victim thread to throw a ThreadDeath. It was inherently unsafe and deprecated in an early JDK release. The ability to "stop" a thread with Thread.stop has been removed and the Thread.stop method changed to throw an exception. Consequently, ThreadDeath is also deprecated, for removal.

This method was originally specified to destroy an empty thread group. The ability to explicitly destroy a thread group no longer exists. A thread group is eligible to be GC'ed when there are no live threads in the group and it is otherwise unreachable.

This method originally indicated if the thread group is destroyed. The ability to destroy a thread group and the concept of a destroyed thread group no longer exists. A thread group is eligible to be GC'ed when there are no live threads in the group and it is otherwise unreachable.

This method originally configured whether the thread group is a daemon thread group that is automatically destroyed when its last thread terminates. The concept of daemon thread group no longer exists. A thread group is eligible to be GC'ed when there are no live threads in the group and it is otherwise unreachable.

This method was originally specified to suspend all threads in the thread group.

This API is part of Management Applets (m-lets), which is a legacy feature that allows loading of remote MBeans. This feature is not usable without a Security Manager, which is deprecated and subject to removal in a future release. Consequently, this API is also deprecated and subject to removal. There is no replacement.

An environment property with this name is ignored while constructing an initial context. This constant was originally used as a property name to specify an Applet to retrieve parameters from, when creating an initial context. Currently any applet properties that need to be passed to an initial context should be copied into the environment hashtable:

Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
    env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
      ((Applet) this).getParameter(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY));
    env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,
      ((Applet) this).getParameter(Context.PROVIDER_URL));
    // ... other properties ...

    Context ctx = new InitialContext(env);

The getPeerCertificates() method that returns an array of java.security.cert.Certificate should be used instead.

This method depends on AccessControlContext which, in conjunction with the Security Manager, is deprecated and subject to removal in a future release. However, performing work as a Subject is useful independent of the Security Manager. Thus, a replacement API named callAs has been added which can be used to perform the same work.
