Avoid Deprecated Methods

HDR uses Java standard syntax to indicate deprecated methods. You should never use deprecated methods for new code because they may be dangerous, obsolete, or unsupported. Existing code should be migrated as soon as possible, as Oracle reserves the right to remove deprecated methods and classes completely from the HDR interface. Deprecated methods are identified in the following publications; refer to these documents for more details including alternative methods. Many development environments highlight the use of deprecated methods. We recommend that you make use of such features.
