        public ProtectionDomain
            (CodeSource cs,
             PermissionCollection permissions,
             ClassLoader loader,
             Principal[] principals)
 These two APIs provide callers the means to query the
 Policy for Principal-based Permission entries. | |
| org.omg.CORBA.Principal Deprecated by CORBA 2.2. | |

| java.security.Signer This class is no longer used. Its functionality has been replaced by java.security.KeyStore, thejava.security.certpackage, andjava.security.Principal. | |

| 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. For more information, see

 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

| 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. | |
| 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. | |

| 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 ThreadDeathexception 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 ofstopshould 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), theinterruptmethod 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.

   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. | |

 GMTTimeZone. | |
| java.util.Date.toLocaleString() As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by DateFormat.format(Date date). | |
| 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 thetoString()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)orGregorianCalendar(year + 1900,
 month, date, hrs, min, sec), using a UTCTimeZone, followed byCalendar.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 PutFieldobject in a proper format, and may
           result in corruption of the serialization stream.  The
           correct way to writePutFielddata is by
           calling theObjectOutputStream.writeFields()method. | |
