Deprecated Classes
javax.accessibility.AccessibleResourceBundle This class is deprecated as of version 1.3 of the Java 2 Platform.
org.xml.sax.helpers.AttributeListImpl This class implements a deprecated interface, `AttributeList`; that interface has been replaced by `Attributes`, which is implemented in the `AttributesImpl` helper class.
javax.management.DefaultLoaderRepository Use `MBeanServer.getClassLoaderRepository()` instead.
javax.management.loading.DefaultLoaderRepository Use `MBeanServer.getClassLoaderRepository()`} instead.
javax.swing.text.DefaultTextUI
org.omg.CORBA.DynamicImplementation org.omg.CORBA.DynamicImplementation
org.xml.sax.HandlerBase This class works with the deprecated `DocumentHandler` interface. It has been replaced by the SAX2 `DefaultHandler` class.
java.security.Identity This class is no longer used. Its functionality has been replaced by `java.security.KeyStore`, the `java.security.cert` package, and `java.security.Principal`.
java.security.IdentityScope This class is no longer used. Its functionality has been replaced by `java.security.KeyStore`, the `java.security.cert` package, and `java.security.Principal`.
java.io.LineNumberInputStream This class incorrectly assumes that bytes adequately represent characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to operate on character streams is via the new character-stream classes, which include a class for counting line numbers.
java.rmi.server.LogStream no replacement

            public PermissionCollection getPermissions
                (java.security.ProtectionDomain pd)
and ProtectionDomain has a constructor:
            public ProtectionDomain
                (CodeSource cs,

java.lang.Thread.destroy() This method was originally designed to destroy this thread without any cleanup. Any monitors it held would have remained locked. However, the method was never implemented. If if were to be implemented, it would be deadlock-prone in much the manner of `Thread.suspend()`. If the target thread held a lock protecting a critical system resource when it was destroyed, no thread could ever access this resource again. If another thread ever attempted to lock this resource, deadlock would result. Such deadlocks typically manifest themselves as "frozen" processes.

javax.swing.JTable.sizeColumnsToFit(boolean) As of Swing version 1.0.3, replaced by `doLayout()`.
java.lang.Thread.stop() This method is inherently unsafe. Stopping a thread with Thread.stop causes it to unlock all of the monitors that it has locked (as a natural consequence of the unchecked `ThreadDeath` exception propagating up the stack). If any of the objects previously protected by these monitors were in an inconsistent state, the damaged objects become visible to other threads, potentially resulting in arbitrary behavior. Many uses 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?.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.stop() This method is inherently unsafe. See `Thread.stop()` for details.
java.lang.Thread.stop(Throwable) This method is inherently unsafe. See `Thread.stop()` for details. An additional danger of this method is that it may be used to generate exceptions that the target thread is unprepared to handle (including checked exceptions that the thread could not possibly throw, were it not for this method). For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?.
java.lang.Thread.suspend() This method has been deprecated, as it is inherently deadlock-prone. If the target thread holds a lock on the monitor protecting a critical system resource when it is suspended, no thread can access this resource until the target thread is resumed. If the thread that would resume the target thread attempts to lock this monitor prior to calling `resume`, deadlock results. Such deadlocks typically manifest themselves as "frozen" processes. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.suspend() This method is inherently deadlock-prone. See `Thread.suspend()` for details.
java.util.Date.toGMTString() As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by `DateFormat.format(Date date)`, using a GMT `TimeZone`.

java.rmi.server.LogStream.toString() no replacement
java.rmi.server.Operation.toString() no replacement
java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream.toString(int) This method does not properly convert bytes into characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the `toString(String enc)` method, which takes an encoding-name argument, or the `toString()` method, which uses the platform's default character encoding.
java.util.Date.UTC(int, int, int, int, int, int) As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by `Calendar.set(year + 1900, month, date, hrs, min, sec)` or `GregorianCalendar(year + 1900, month, date, hrs, min, sec)`, using a UTC `TimeZone`, followed by `Calendar.getTime().getTime()`.
javax.swing.text.View.viewToModel(float, float, Shape)
org.omg.CORBA.portable.OutputStream.write_Principal(Principal) Deprecated by CORBA 2.2.
java.rmi.server.LogStream.write(byte[], int, int) no replacement
java.rmi.server.LogStream.write(int) no replacement
java.io.ObjectOutputStream.PutField.write(ObjectOutput) This method does not write the values contained by this `PutField` object in a proper format, and may result in corruption of the serialization stream. The correct way to write `PutField` data is by calling the `ObjectOutputStream.writeFields()` method.
