The Applet API is deprecated, no replacement.
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.

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.image.IndexColorModel.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.

It is recommended to use `Beans.instantiate(ClassLoader, String, BeanContext)`, because the Applet API is deprecated. See the java.applet package documentation for further information.
java.lang.Boolean(boolean)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Boolean.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 `Boolean.TRUE` and `Boolean.FALSE` if possible.
java.lang.Boolean(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Boolean.parseBoolean(String)` to convert a string to a `boolean` primitive, or use `Boolean.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Boolean` object.
java.lang.Byte(byte)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Byte.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 `Character.valueOf(char)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
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.
java.lang.Double(double)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Double.valueOf(double)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Double(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Double.parseDouble(String)` to convert a string to a `double` primitive, or use `Double.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Double` object.
java.lang.Float(double)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Instead, use the static factory method `Float.valueOf(float)` method as follows: `Float.valueOf((float)value)`.
java.lang.Float(float)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Float.valueOf(float)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Float(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Float.parseFloat(String)` to convert a string to a `float` primitive, or use `Float.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Float` object.
java.lang.Integer(int)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Integer.valueOf(int)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Integer(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Integer.parseInt(String)` to convert a string to a `int` primitive, or use `Integer.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to an `Integer` object.
java.lang.Long(long)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Long.valueOf(long)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Long(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Long.parseLong(String)` to convert a string to a `long` primitive, or use `Long.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Long` object.
java.lang.SecurityManager
The Security Manager is deprecated and subject to removal in a future release. There is no replacement for the Security Manager. See JEP 411 for discussion and alternatives.
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkMulticast(InetAddress, byte)
java.lang.Short(short)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Short.valueOf(short)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Short(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Short.parseShort(String)` to convert a string to a `short` primitive, or use `Short.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Short` object.

java.lang.Thread.countStackFrames()
This method was originally designed to count the number of stack frames but the results were never well-defined and it depended on thread-suspension. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.Thread.resume()
This method exists solely for use with `Thread.suspend()`, which has been deprecated because it is deadlock-prone. 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.allowThreadSuspension(boolean)
The definition of this call depends on `ThreadGroup.suspend()`, which is deprecated. Further, the behavior of this call was never specified.

javax.naming.Context.APPLET
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);

java.io.WriteAbortedException.detail
This field predates the general-purpose exception chaining facility. The `Throwable.getCause()` method is now the preferred means of obtaining this information.
java.lang.Character.UnicodeBlock.SURROGATES_AREA
Instead of `SURROGATES_AREA`, use `Character.UnicodeBlock.HIGH_SURROGATES`, `Character.UnicodeBlock.HIGH_PRIVATE_USE_SURROGATES`, and `Character.UnicodeBlock.LOW_SURROGATES`. These constants match the block definitions of the Unicode Standard. The `Character.UnicodeBlock.of(char)` and `Character.UnicodeBlock.of(int)` methods return the standard constants.

java.util.logging.Logger.global
Initialization of this field is prone to deadlocks. The field must be initialized by the Logger class initialization which may cause deadlocks with the LogManager class initialization. In such cases two class initialization wait for each other to complete. The preferred way to get the global logger object is via the call `Logger.getGlobal()`. For compatibility with old JDK versions where the `Logger.getGlobal()` is not available use the call `Logger.getLogger(Logger.GLOBAL_LOGGER_NAME)` or `Logger.getLogger("global")`.

No replacement.
javax.management.openmbean.OpenType.ALLOWED_CLASSNAMES
Use `ALLOWED_CLASSNAMES_LIST` instead.
javax.naming.Context.APPLET
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);

java.beans.Beans.instantiate(ClassLoader, String, BeanContext, AppletInitializer)
It is recommended to use `Beans.instantiate(ClassLoader, String, BeanContext)`, because the Applet API is deprecated. See the java.applet package documentation for further information.
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 `ByteArrayOutputStream.toString(String charsetName)` or `ByteArrayOutputStream.toString(Charset charset)` method, which takes an encoding-name or charset argument, or the `toString()` method, which uses the platform's default character encoding.
java.io.DataInputStream.readLine()
This method does not properly convert bytes to characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to read lines of text is via the `BufferedReader.readLine()` method. Programs that use the `DataInputStream` class to read lines can be converted to use the `BufferedReader` class by replacing code of the form:

>          DataInputStream d = new DataInputStream(in);

with:

>          BufferedReader d
>               = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in));

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.io.ObjectInputStream.readLine()
This method does not properly convert bytes to characters. see DataInputStream for the details and alternatives.
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.lang.Character.isJavaLetter(char)
Replaced by isJavaIdentifierStart(char).
java.lang.Character.isJavaLetterOrDigit(char)
Replaced by isJavaIdentifierPart(char).
java.lang.Character.isSpace(char)
Replaced by isWhitespace(char).
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`.
java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(byte[], int, int)
Replaced by `defineClass(String, byte[], int, int)`
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.lang.invoke.MethodHandles.Lookup.hasPrivateAccess()
This method was originally designed to test `PRIVATE` access that implies full privilege access but `MODULE` access has since become independent of `PRIVATE` access. It is recommended to call `MethodHandles.Lookup.hasFullPrivilegeAccess()` instead.
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.Package.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.lang.ref.Reference.isEnqueued()
This method was originally specified to test if a reference object has been cleared and enqueued but was never implemented to do this test. This method could be misused due to the inherent race condition or without an associated `ReferenceQueue`. An application relying on this method to release critical resources could cause serious performance issue. An application should use `ReferenceQueue` to reliably determine what reference objects that have been enqueued or `refersTo(null)` to determine if this reference object has been cleared.
java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject.isAccessible()
This method is deprecated because its name hints that it checks if the reflected object is accessible when it actually indicates if the checks for Java language access control are suppressed. This method may return `false` on a reflected object that is accessible to the caller. To test if this reflected object is accessible, it should use `AccessibleObject.canAccess(Object)`.
java.lang.reflect.Proxy.getProxyClass(ClassLoader, Class<?>...)
Proxy classes generated in a named module are encapsulated and not accessible to code outside its module. `Constructor.newInstance` will throw `IllegalAccessException` when it is called on an inaccessible proxy class. Use `Proxy.newProxyInstance(ClassLoader, Class[], InvocationHandler)` to create a proxy instance instead.
java.lang.Runtime.Version.major()
As of Java SE 10, the first element of a version number is not the major-release number but the feature-release counter, incremented for every time-based release. Use the `Runtime.Version.feature()` method in preference to this method. For compatibility, this method returns the value of the feature element.
java.lang.Runtime.Version.minor()
As of Java SE 10, the second element of a version number is not the minor-release number but the interim-release counter, incremented for every interim release. Use the `Runtime.Version.interim()` method in preference to this method. For compatibility, this method returns the value of the interim element, or zero if it is absent.
java.lang.Runtime.Version.security()
As of Java SE 10, the third element of a version number is not the security level but the update-release counter, incremented for every update release. Use the `Runtime.Version.update()` method in preference to this method. For compatibility, this method returns the value of the update element, or zero if it is absent.
java.lang.SecurityManager.checkMulticast(InetAddress, byte)
java.lang.String.getBytes(int, int, byte[], int)
This method does not properly convert characters into bytes. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the `String.getBytes()` method, which uses the platform's default charset.
java.lang.System.getSecurityManager()
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.
java.lang.System.setSecurityManager(SecurityManager)
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.
java.lang.Thread.checkAccess()
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.
java.lang.Thread.countStackFrames()
This method was originally designed to count the number of stack frames but the results were never well-defined and it depended on thread-suspension. This method is subject to removal in a future version of Java SE.
java.lang.Thread.resume()
This method exists solely for use with `Thread.suspend()`, which has been deprecated because it is deadlock-prone. For more information, see Why are Thread.stop, Thread.suspend and Thread.resume Deprecated?.
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.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.allowThreadSuspension(boolean)
The definition of this call depends on `ThreadGroup.suspend()`, which is deprecated. Further, the behavior of this call was never specified.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.checkAccess()
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.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.destroy()
The API and mechanism for destroying a ThreadGroup is inherently flawed. The ability to explicitly or automatically destroy a thread group will be removed in a future release.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.isDaemon()
The API and mechanism for destroying a ThreadGroup is inherently flawed. The ability to explicitly or automatically destroy a thread group, and the concept of daemon thread group, will be removed in a future release.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.isDestroyed()
The API and mechanism for destroying a ThreadGroup is inherently flawed. The ability to explicitly or automatically destroy a thread group will be removed in a future release.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.resume()
This method is used solely in conjunction with `Thread.suspend` and `ThreadGroup.suspend`, both of which have been deprecated, as they are inherently deadlock-prone. See `Thread.suspend()` for details.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.setDaemon(boolean)
The API and mechanism for destroying a ThreadGroup is inherently flawed. The ability to explicitly or automatically destroy a thread group, and the concept of daemon thread group, will be removed in a future release.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.stop()
This method is inherently unsafe. See `Thread.stop()` for details.
java.lang.ThreadGroup.suspend()
This method is inherently deadlock-prone. See `Thread.suspend()` for details.
java.math.BigDecimal.divide(BigDecimal, int)
The method `BigDecimal.divide(BigDecimal, RoundingMode)` should be used in preference to this legacy method.
java.math.BigDecimal.divide(BigDecimal, int, int)
The method `BigDecimal.divide(BigDecimal, int, RoundingMode)` should be used in preference to this legacy method.
java.math.BigDecimal.setScale(int, int)
The method `BigDecimal.setScale(int, RoundingMode)` should be used in preference to this legacy method.
java.net.DatagramSocket.setDatagramSocketImplFactory(DatagramSocketImplFactory)
Use `DatagramChannel`, or subclass `DatagramSocket` directly.
This method provided a way in early JDK releases to replace the system wide implementation of `DatagramSocket`. It has been mostly obsolete since Java 1.4. If required, a `DatagramSocket` can be created to use a custom implementation by extending `DatagramSocket` and using the protected constructor that takes an implementation as a parameter.
java.net.DatagramSocketImpl.getTTL()
use getTimeToLive instead.
java.net.DatagramSocketImpl.setTTL(byte)
use setTimeToLive instead.
java.net.MulticastSocket.getInterface()
The network interface may not be uniquely identified by the InetAddress returned. Use `MulticastSocket.getNetworkInterface()` instead.
java.net.MulticastSocket.getLoopbackMode()
Use `DatagramSocket.getOption(SocketOption)` with `StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_LOOP` instead.
java.net.MulticastSocket.getTTL()
use the `MulticastSocket.getTimeToLive()` method instead, which returns an int instead of a byte.
java.net.MulticastSocket.joinGroup(InetAddress)
This method does not accept the network interface on which to join the multicast group. Use `MulticastSocket.joinGroup(SocketAddress, NetworkInterface)` instead.
java.net.MulticastSocket.leaveGroup(InetAddress)
This method does not accept the network interface on which to leave the multicast group. Use `MulticastSocket.leaveGroup(SocketAddress, NetworkInterface)` instead.
java.net.MulticastSocket.send(DatagramPacket, byte)
Use the following code or its equivalent instead:

      ......
      int ttl = mcastSocket.getOption(StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_TTL);
      mcastSocket.setOption(StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_TTL, newttl);
      mcastSocket.send(p);
      mcastSocket.setOption(StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_TTL, ttl);
      ......

java.net.MulticastSocket.setInterface(InetAddress)
The InetAddress may not uniquely identify the network interface. Use `MulticastSocket.setNetworkInterface(NetworkInterface)` instead.
java.net.MulticastSocket.setLoopbackMode(boolean)
Use `DatagramSocket.setOption(SocketOption, Object)` with `StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_LOOP` instead. The loopback mode is enabled by default, `MulticastSocket.setOption(StandardSocketOptions.IP_MULTICAST_LOOP, false)` disables it.
java.net.MulticastSocket.setTTL(byte)
use the `MulticastSocket.setTimeToLive(int)` method instead, which uses int instead of byte as the type for ttl.
java.net.ServerSocket.setSocketFactory(SocketImplFactory)
Use a `ServerSocketFactory` and subclass `ServerSocket` directly.
This method provided a way in early JDK releases to replace the system wide implementation of `ServerSocket`. It has been mostly obsolete since Java 1.4. If required, a `ServerSocket` can be created to use a custom implementation by extending `ServerSocket` and using the protected constructor that takes an implementation as a parameter.

java.net.URLConnection.getDefaultRequestProperty(String)
The instance specific getRequestProperty method should be used after an appropriate instance of URLConnection is obtained.
java.net.URLConnection.setDefaultRequestProperty(String, String)
The instance specific setRequestProperty method should be used after an appropriate instance of URLConnection is obtained. Invoking this method will have no effect.
java.net.URLDecoder.decode(String)
The resulting string may vary depending on the platform's default encoding. Instead, use the decode(String,String) method to specify the encoding.
java.net.URLEncoder.encode(String)
The resulting string may vary depending on the platform's default encoding. Instead, use the encode(String,String) method to specify the encoding.
java.net.URLStreamHandler.setURL(URL, String, String, int, String, String)
Use setURL(URL, String, String, int, String, String, String, String);

java.rmi.server.RemoteRef.done(RemoteCall)
1.2 style stubs no longer use this method. Instead of using a sequence of method calls to 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.
java.rmi.server.RemoteRef.invoke(RemoteCall)
1.2 style stubs no longer use this method. Instead of using a sequence of method calls to 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.
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.
java.rmi.server.RemoteStub.setRef(RemoteStub, RemoteRef)
No replacement. The `setRef` method was intended for setting the remote reference of a remote stub. This is unnecessary, since `RemoteStub`s can be created and initialized with a remote reference through use of the `RemoteStub(RemoteRef)` constructor.
java.rmi.server.RMIClassLoader.getSecurityContext(ClassLoader)
no replacement. As of the Java 2 platform v1.2, RMI no longer uses this method to obtain a class loader's security context.

Use `X509Certificate.getSubjectX500Principal()` instead. This method returns the `subject` as an implementation specific `Principal` object, which should not be relied upon by portable code.
java.security.cert.X509CertSelector.getIssuerAsString()
Use `X509CertSelector.getIssuer()` or `X509CertSelector.getIssuerAsBytes()` instead. This method should not be relied on as it can fail to match some certificates because of a loss of encoding information in the RFC 2253 String form of some distinguished names.
java.security.cert.X509CertSelector.getSubjectAsString()
Use `X509CertSelector.getSubject()` or `X509CertSelector.getSubjectAsBytes()` instead. This method should not be relied on as it can fail to match some certificates because of a loss of encoding information in the RFC 2253 String form of some distinguished names.
java.security.cert.X509CertSelector.setIssuer(String)
Use `X509CertSelector.setIssuer(X500Principal)` or `X509CertSelector.setIssuer(byte[])` instead. This method should not be relied on as it can fail to match some certificates because of a loss of encoding information in the RFC 2253 String form of some distinguished names.
java.security.cert.X509CertSelector.setSubject(String)
Use `X509CertSelector.setSubject(X500Principal)` or `X509CertSelector.setSubject(byte[])` instead. This method should not be relied on as it can fail to match some certificates because of a loss of encoding information in the RFC 2253 String form of some distinguished names.

Use `X509CRLSelector.addIssuer(X500Principal)` or `X509CRLSelector.addIssuerName(byte[])` instead. This method should not be relied on as it can fail to match some CRLs because of a loss of encoding information in the RFC 2253 String form of some distinguished names.
java.security.Provider.getVersion()
use `Provider.getVersionStr()` instead.
java.security.Security.getAlgorithmProperty(String, String)
This method used to return the value of a proprietary property in the master file of the "SUN" Cryptographic Service Provider in order to determine how to parse algorithm-specific parameters. Use the new provider-based and algorithm-independent `AlgorithmParameters` and `KeyFactory` engine classes (introduced in the J2SE version 1.2 platform) instead.

javax.imageio.spi.ServiceRegistry.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()`.

java.awt.AWTEvent(Event)
It is recommended that `AWTEvent(Object, int)` be used instead
java.awt.event.KeyEvent(Component, int, long, int, int)
as of JDK1.1; use `KeyEvent(Component, int, long, int, int, char)` instead
java.io.StreamTokenizer(InputStream)
As of JDK version 1.1, the preferred way to tokenize an input stream is to convert it into a character stream, for example:

>        Reader r = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(is));
>        StreamTokenizer st = new StreamTokenizer(r);

java.lang.Boolean(boolean)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Boolean.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 `Boolean.TRUE` and `Boolean.FALSE` if possible.
java.lang.Boolean(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Boolean.parseBoolean(String)` to convert a string to a `boolean` primitive, or use `Boolean.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Boolean` object.
java.lang.Byte(byte)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Byte.valueOf(byte)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Byte(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Byte.parseByte(String)` to convert a string to a `byte` primitive, or use `Byte.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Byte` object.
java.lang.Character(char)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Character.valueOf(char)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Double(double)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Double.valueOf(double)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Double(String)

java.lang.Float(double)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Instead, use the static factory method `Float.valueOf(float)` method as follows: `Float.valueOf((float)value)`.
java.lang.Float(float)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Float.valueOf(float)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Float(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Float.parseFloat(String)` to convert a string to a `float` primitive, or use `Float.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Float` object.
java.lang.Integer(int)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Integer.valueOf(int)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.

java.lang.Short(short)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. The static factory `Short.valueOf(short)` is generally a better choice, as it is likely to yield significantly better space and time performance.
java.lang.Short(String)
It is rarely appropriate to use this constructor. Use `Short.parseShort(String)` to convert a string to a `short` primitive, or use `Short.valueOf(String)` to convert a string to a `Short` object.
java.lang.String(byte[], int)
This method does not properly convert bytes into characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the `String` constructors that take a `Charset`, charset name, or that use the platform's default charset.
java.lang.String(byte[], int, int, int)
This method does not properly convert bytes into characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to do this is via the `String` constructors that take a `Charset`, charset name, or that use the platform's default charset.
