Hi,
The general thing which we quite often find even with the latest
releases of JDK is that even the methods that are depricated, are really not
removed from the JDK installation. I guess what they
are planning to do is to slowly make the users move to the newer methods and
at some point of time
remove them. The other possibility can be that they gave lots of more
features in terms of security and efficiency etc. in the new methods that
the users will not users the older methods at all even though the depricated
methods are there.
So, finally it depends on when to remove the depricated methods. It can
be at the earlier stages or somewhere down the line. I am not really clear
when this is done.
Regards,
Dharnidhar
