Hi,
>From http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/guide/awt/DeprecatedMethods.html:
The AWT changed significantly between the 1.0.2 and 1.1 releases.
Certain old ways of doing things are deprecated -- no longer
recommended -- and might not be supported in a future major release
Look also in
http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/relnotes/deprecatedlist.html
I guess the book you use writes in jdk1.0.
