Deprecated For Removal

Element	Description
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.actionListener	This field is unused.
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.adjustmentListener	This field is unused.
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkAwtEventQueueAccess()	This method was originally used to check if the calling thread could access the AWT event queue. The method has been obsoleted and code should instead use SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission) to check AWTPermission("accessEventQueue"). This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkMemberAccess(Class<?>, int)	This method relies on the caller being at a stack depth of 4 which is error-prone and cannot be enforced by the runtime. Users of this method should instead invoke SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission) directly. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkSystemClipboardAccess()	This method was originally used to check if the calling thread could access the system clipboard. The method has been obsoleted and code should instead use SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission) to check AWTPermission("accessClipboard"). This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkTopLevelWindow(Object)	This method was originally used to check if the calling thread was trusted to bring up a top-level window. The method has been obsoleted and code should instead use SecurityManager.checkPermission(java.security.Permission) to check AWTPermission("showWindowWithoutWarningBanner"). This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.classDepth(String)	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.classLoaderDepth()	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.Compiler	JIT compilers and their technologies vary too widely to be controlled effectively by a standardized interface. As such, many JIT compiler implementations ignore this interface, and are instead controllable by implementation-specific mechanisms such as command-line options. This class is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.componentListener	This field is unused.
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.componentWithFocus	This field is unused; to get the component with focus use the getComponentWithFocus method.
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.containerListener	This field is unused.
java.lang.Thread.countStackFrames()	The definition of this call depends on Thread.suspend(), which is deprecated. Further, the results of this call were never well-defined. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.currentClassLoader()	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.currentLoadedClass()	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
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 it 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. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.focusListener	This field is unused.
java.lang.SecurityManager.getInCheck()	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.Runtime.getLocalizedInputStream(InputStream)	As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to translate a byte stream in the local encoding into a character stream in Unicode is via the InputStreamReader and BufferedReader classes. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.Runtime.getLocalizedOutputStream(OutputStream)	As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to translate a Unicode character stream into a byte stream in the local encoding is via the OutputStreamWriter, BufferedWriter, and PrintWriter classes. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
javafx.application.HostServices.getWebContext()	This method is deprecated as of JDK 9 because the Applet API is deprecated.
java.lang.SecurityManager.inCheck	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This field is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.inClass(String)	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.SecurityManager.inClassLoader()	This type of security checking is not recommended. It is recommended that the checkPermission call be used instead. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.

java.lang.Runtime.runFinalizersOnExit(boolean)	This method is inherently unsafe. It may result in finalizers being called on live objects while other threads are concurrently manipulating those objects, resulting in erratic behavior or deadlock. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.System.runFinalizersOnExit(boolean)	This method is inherently unsafe. It may result in finalizers being called on live objects while other threads are concurrently manipulating those objects, resulting in erratic behavior or deadlock. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
com.sun.security.auth.module.SolarisLoginModule	As of JDK1.4, replaced by com.sun.security.auth.module.UnixLoginModule. This LoginModule is entirely deprecated and is here to allow for a smooth transition to the new UnixLoginModule. This class is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.

com.sun.tools.doclets.standard.Standard	The doclet has been superseded by its replacement, StandardDoclet.
java.lang.Thread.stop(Throwable)	This method was originally designed to force a thread to stop and throw a given Throwable as an exception. It was inherently unsafe (see Thread.stop() for details), and furthermore could be used to generate exceptions that the target thread was not prepared to handle. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor.textListener	This field is unused.

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 it 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. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.

java.rmi.server.RemoteCall.executeCall()	no replacement
java.rmi.server.UnicastRemoteObject.exportObject(Remote)	This method is deprecated because it supports only static stubs. Use exportObject(Remote, port) or exportObject(Remote, port, csf, ssf) instead.
org.omg.CORBA.Any.extract_Principal()	Deprecated by CORBA 2.2.
java.awt.color.ICC_Profile.finalize()	The finalize method has been deprecated. Subclasses that override finalize in order to perform cleanup should be modified to use alternative cleanup mechanisms and to remove the overriding finalize method. When overriding the finalize method, its implementation must explicitly ensure that super.finalize() is invoked as described in Object.finalize(). See the specification for Object.finalize() for further information about migration options.
java.awt.Graphics.finalize()	The finalize method has been deprecated.

When overriding the finalize method, its implementation must explicitly ensure that super.finalize() is invoked as described in Object.finalize(). See the specification for Object.finalize() for further information about migration options.
java.lang.Object.finalize()	The finalization mechanism is inherently problematic. Finalization can lead to performance issues, deadlocks, and hangs. Errors in finalizers can lead to resource leaks; there is no way to cancel finalization if it is no longer necessary; and no ordering is specified among calls to finalize methods of different objects. Furthermore, there are no guarantees regarding the timing of finalization. The finalize method might be called on a finalizable object only after an indefinite delay, if at all. Classes whose instances hold non-heap resources should provide a method to enable explicit release of those resources, and they should also implement AutoCloseable if appropriate. The Cleaner and PhantomReference provide more flexible and efficient ways to release resources when an object becomes unreachable.

java.lang.ClassLoader.getPackage(String)	If multiple class loaders delegate to each other and define classes with the same package name, and one such loader relies on the lookup behavior of getPackage to return a Package from a parent loader, then the properties exposed by the Package may not be as expected in the rest of the program. For example, the Package will only expose annotations from the package-info.class file defined by the parent loader, even if annotations exist in a package-info.class file defined by a child loader. A more robust approach is to use the ClassLoader.getDefinedPackage(java.lang.String) method which returns a Package for the specified class loader.

java.rmi.server.RemoteRef.newCall(RemoteObject, Operation[], int, long)	1.2 style stubs no longer use this method. Instead of using a sequence of method calls on the stub's the remote reference (newCall, invoke, and done), a stub uses a single method, invoke(Remote, Method, Object[], int), on the remote reference to carry out parameter marshalling, remote method executing and unmarshalling of the return value.
javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory.newFactory()
java.lang.Class.newInstance()	This method propagates any exception thrown by the nullary constructor, including a checked exception. Use of this method effectively bypasses the compile-time exception checking that would otherwise be performed by the compiler. The Constructor.newInstance method avoids this problem by wrapping any exception thrown by the constructor in a (checked) InvocationTargetException. The call clazz.newInstance() can be replaced by clazz.getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance() The latter sequence of calls is inferred to be able to throw the additional exception types InvocationTargetException and NoSuchMethodException. Both of these exception types are subclasses of ReflectiveOperationException.

javafx.scene.layout.Region.snapSpace(double)	replaced by snapSpaceX() and snapSpaceY()
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.Thread.stop(Throwable)	This method was originally designed to force a thread to stop and throw a given Throwable as an exception. It was inherently unsafe (see Thread.stop() for details), and furthermore could be used to generate exceptions that the target thread was not prepared to handle. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.stop()	This method is inherently unsafe. See Thread.stop() for details.
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.

jdk.nashorn.api.scripting.ScriptObjectMirror.toNumber()
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.rmi.server.LogStream.toString()	no replacement
java.rmi.server.Operation.toString()	no replacement
java.io.File.toURL()	This method does not automatically escape characters that are illegal in URLs. It is recommended that new code convert an abstract pathname into a URL by first converting it into a URI, via the toURI method, and then converting the URI into a URL via the URI.toURL method.
java.lang.Runtime.traceInstructions(boolean)	This method was intended to control instruction tracing. It has been superseded by JVM-specific tracing mechanisms. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.Runtime.traceMethodCalls(boolean)	This method was intended to control method call tracing. It has been superseded by JVM-specific tracing mechanisms. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.

To avoid confusion over plain or volatile memory effects it is recommended that the method AtomicLongArray.weakCompareAndSetPlain(int, long, long) be used instead.
java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference.weakCompareAndSet(V, V)	This method has plain memory effects but the method name implies volatile memory effects (see methods such as AtomicReference.compareAndExchange(V, V) and AtomicReference.compareAndSet(V, V)). To avoid confusion over plain or volatile memory effects it is recommended that the method AtomicReference.weakCompareAndSetPlain(V, V) be used instead.
java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReferenceArray.weakCompareAndSet(int, E, E)	This method has plain memory effects but the method name implies volatile memory effects (see methods such as AtomicReferenceArray.compareAndExchange(int, E, E) and AtomicReferenceArray.compareAndSet(int, E, E)). To avoid confusion over plain or volatile memory effects it is recommended that the method AtomicReferenceArray.weakCompareAndSetPlain(int, E, E) be used instead.
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.
java.rmi.server.LogStream.write(byte[], int, int)	no replacement
java.rmi.server.LogStream.write(int)	no replacement
org.omg.CORBA.portable.OutputStream.write_Principal(Principal)	Deprecated by CORBA 2.2.
