Force use of deprecated API to fail compilation

Ok, short question that I hope you can help me with. Is it possible to force the compilation to fail if I a deprecated API is used. Why? Well, we are a large number of developers and sometimes people use a method or class that has been deprecated because they are either lazy or can't find the new class/method.

This isn't possible with the default compiler. You would have to write a special compiler wrapper that calls the java compiler (sun.tools.javac.Main in tools.jar)
Can't you just hang a rubber chicken over the desk of the person who checked in bad code - that was what happened at my last job :)
Need Java help? Want to help people who do? Sit down with a cup of Java at the hotjoe forums.
Sure they're new - come get them started!

Deprecated api in 1.2.1

compiling samp10.java

Note: samp10.java uses a deprecated API. Please consult the documentation for a

Ignore what I said. I misread the message. The createURL needs to be changed to getURL in samp10.
Thanks

How DO you compile then?
If you don't type "javac", you must be using an IDE.
In your IDE there should be some kind of configuration
tab or option for "compiler options" or compilation options
or compiler arguments... something like that.
put "-deprecation" in that text box and recompile.
Your compiler should tell you all about which methods
are deprecated -- you then go to your trust JavaDocs
and lookup those methods in the API and read WHY they
are deprecated (i.e. OLD, outdated, defunct, no longer used)
and what you should use instead. Then, correct your
code to no longer use the deprecated methods and instead
do things as suggested in the deprecation comments.

JCo (in UDF) throws: "...uses or overrides a deprecated API."

Hi everybody,
when using JCO in UDF I get the error:
<b>MyMapping_.java uses or overrides a deprecated API. Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details. 1 error</b>
Does anybody know how to solve the problem?
The problem occurs only when I try to access the tableParameters:
<i> codes = function.getTableParameterList().getTable("COMPANYCODE_LIST");</i>
Regards Mario

Hi Mario,
With every latest Java version its APIs keep changing and some functions are removed or "deprecated", so if you are getting this error which means JRE you are using not have that function available so compile your code with Java -deprecation to suppress that error.
To check JRE version type Java - version on command prompt and then refer to Java API (also available online) to get detail about that particular function, otherwise you can also chose alternate function to achieve your programming objecting. I prefer if you see JCO API for help on this function.
Refer to sample code : http://www.sapdevelopment.co.uk/java/jco/jco_callfunc.htm

What's this mean? - "uses or overrides a deprecated API."

Hi, I'm a newbie at Java and I'm getting this error when I try to compile my program:
"Note: C:\MarsLander\NewUser.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details."
I haven't a clue what is going on here, can anybody help?

Methods and classes may get deprecated with the threat that they will be removed form the API in a future version. Deprecated things can be but should not be used.
(Deprecated features can be undeprecated in a future version though. There are at least tow examples for this.)
As the message tells, compile it with the -deprecation flag and the compiler will report which method or class it is about.

When i try to run more than one servelt of the Quick Start samples that using Livecycle Java APIs and i get an error of "Remote EJBObject lookup failed for ejb/Invocation provider" from any servelt i run.
I try some Quick samples which is not servelts (java class) and it works fine, which makes me sure that my connection properties is true.
Environment:
The LiveCycle is based on "Websphere v6.1", and i use "Eclipse Platform
Version: 3.4.1".
i install "tomcat 5.5.17" to test the servelts in developing time through Eclipse.(only for test in developing time not for deploy on )
The Jars i added in the classpath:
adobe-forms-client.jar
adobe-livecycle-client.jar
adobe-usermanager-client.jar
adobe-utilities.jar
ejb.jar
j2ee.jar
ecutlis.jar
com.ibm.ws.admin.client_6.1.0.jar
com.ibm.ws.webservices.thinclient_6.1.0.jar
server.jar
utlis.jar
wsexception.jar
My code is :
Properties ConnectionProps = new Properties();
ConnectionProps.setProperty(ServiceClientFactoryProperties.DSC_DEFAULT_EJB_ENDPOINT, "iiop://localhost:2809");
ConnectionProps.setProperty ServiceClientFactoryProperties.DSC_TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL,ServiceClientFactoryProperties.DSC_ EJB_PROTOCOL);
ConnectionProps.setProperty(ServiceClientFactoryProperties.DSC_SERVER_TYPE,ServiceClientFa ctoryProperties.DSC_WEBSPHERE_SERVER_TYPE);
ConnectionProps.setProperty(ServiceClientFactoryProperties.DSC_CREDENTIAL_USERNAME, "Administrator");
ConnectionProps.setProperty(ServiceClientFactoryProperties.DSC_CREDENTIAL_PASSWORD, "password");
ConnectionProps.setProperty("java.naming.factory.initial", "com.ibm.ws.naming.util.WsnInitCtxFactory");
//Create a ServiceClientFactory object
ServiceClientFactory myFactory = ServiceClientFactory.createInstance(ConnectionProps);
//Create a FormsServiceClient object
FormsServiceClient formsClient = new FormsServiceClient(myFactory);
//Get Form data to pass to the processFormSubmission method
Document formData = new Document(req.getInputStream());
//Set run-time options
RenderOptionsSpec processSpec = new RenderOptionsSpec();
processSpec.setLocale("en_US");
//Invoke the processFormSubmission method
FormsResult formOut = formsClient.processFormSubmission(formData,"CONTENT_TYPE=application/pdf&CONTENT_TYPE=app lication/vnd.adobe.xdp+xml&CONTENT_TYPE=text/xml", "",processSpec);
List fileAttachments = formOut.getAttachments();
Iterator iter = fileAttachments.iterator();
int i = 0 ;
while (iter.hasNext()) {
Document file = (Document)iter.next();
file.copyToFile(new File("C:\\Adobe\\tempFile"+i+".jp i++;
short processState = formOut.getAction();
...... (To the end of the sample)
My Error was:

I assume here that your application is deployed on a different physical machine of where LCES is deployed and running.
Do the following test:
- Say that LCES is deployed on machine1 and your application is deployed on machine2. Ping machine1 from machine2 and note the ip address.
- Ping machine1 from machine1 and note the ip address.
The two pings should match.
- Ping machine2 from machine1 and note the ip address.
- Ping machine2 from machine2 and note the ip address.
The two pings should match.
Usually this kind of error would happen if your servers have internal and external ip addresses.

Oracle 10.2 Loadjava for SQLJ says "..uses or overrides deprecated API"

I just upgraded to 10.2 from 8.1.7 (platform is AIX 5L) and sqlj program was INVALID after upgrade.Running loadjava on the program seems successfull, and java class is VALID, but also get:
Note: MQBridge uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details.
Well, after lots of reading to try and assess the significance of the error and identify the deprecated API, I think the sqlj script on UNIX will allow me to issue the 'deprecated' option to perhaps identify the old API. However, the I'm having trouble even getting the sqlj to work (I think it's in $OH/oc4j/bin with non-executable permissions) and the README in $OH/sqlj/demo seems incorrect.
The APIs in the program are:
import oracle.sqlj.runtime.Oracle
import java.sql.SQLException
import oracle.sql.CLOB
import com.ibm.mq.*
import java.math.BigDecimal
import java.util.*
import javax.swing.event.*
Perhaps someone versed in this arena can provide some guidance in what seems to be a straighforward problem (or maybe not a problem)? Sure would appreciate it!

HI,
In my opinion, upgrading the RDBMS might not suffices.
I'd re-install SQLJ 10.2f rom the companion CD and check that its working fine in your environment using the following command:
$ sqlj -version
Oracle SQLJ Release 10.2.0.1.0 Production
Copyright (c) 1997, 2005, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved.Oracle furnishes the following code samples under
$ORACLE_HOME/sqlj/demo/ to check your environment:
connect.properties // to be customized to your environment
TestInstallCreateTable.java
TestInstallJDBC.java
TestInstallSQLJ.sqlj
TestInstallSQLJChecker.sqlj
Then make sure that:
- the executables (script and binaries) are available under $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
- the PATH environment variable must include $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
- the CLASSPATH environment variable must include the following:
- the JDBC jars (ojdbc14.jar, or clases12.jar)
- ORACLE_HOME/sqlj/lib/translator.jar
- ORACLE_HOME/sqlj/lib/runtime12.jar
As described in chapter 10 of my book, here is how to use them to check
your environment:
// create a table for test purposes
$ javac TestInstallCreateTable.java
$ java -Doracle.net.tns_admin=$TNS_ADMIN TestInstallCreateTable
SALES table created
$
// Check JDBC install
$ javac TestInstallJDBC.java
$ java -Doracle.net.tns_admin=$TNS_ADMIN TestInstallJDBC
Hello JDBC!
$
// Check the SQLJ translator, runtime, and the application
$ sqlj TestInstallSQLJ.sqlj
$ java -Doracle.net.tns_admin=$TNS_ADMIN TestInstallSQLJ
Hello, SQLJ!
$Then check that SQLJ is installed in the database using
SQL> describe sys.sqljutlOtherwise, run the sqljutl.sql script to install it. In addition, the following query checks the availability of the SQLJ translator in the database (using system or a DBA account)
SQL> select object_type, status from all_objects where
2 dbms_java.longname(object_name) ='oracle/sqlj/checker/JdbcVersion';See chapter 10, 11 and 12 of my book for further coverage..

Oh no! "Deprecated API Usage - Apple no longer accepts submissions of apps that use QuickTime APIs."

Tried to submit an app to the Mac App store and I received this now:
"Deprecated API Usage - Apple no longer accepts submissions of apps that use QuickTime APIs."
Looks like a fix is in for Adobe Air (https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3680732), but I'm not sure if the same is being performed on Director.
I'm not using any Xtras or anything, I think this is just embed within the Director builds.
Looks like submitting anything to any Apple App store is going to be on hold for everyone until this gets fixed.

Hi,
Looks like this issue has been fixed in April 8th, 2014 release of AIR SDK. So the latest release 13.0.0.111 on May 13th, 2014 will have this issue fixed.

Sana,
Look at your last but one line where you have used ".show()", which is a deprecated API. Change to ".repaint()" and try it out.
window.setSize(123,233);
window.show(); // show() is deprecated API...
window.setVisible(true);Cool

Setting 'ReplytoAddress' in NormalizedMessage using BPEL client API-failing

Hi all,
I tried specifying 'Reply to Address' property in Normalized Message using BPEL Client API to receive response from Asynchronous BPEL process but it's not working.
I am facing the following situations:-
1.Just setting 'Reply To address'-raises
exception on JaxRpc invoke: HTTP transport error: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: Message transmission failure, response code: 500
2.Specifying both 'Reply to address' and 'Reply To PortType' is sending the entire process to an infinite wait state in receiving response from the worklist task service.
My BPEL process has a human worklist and this workflow on completion can't callback my BPEL process for carrying out Step -2 mentioned above.
Reply to Address = webservice SOAP endpoint URI
Reply to Porttype= the porttype name in the WSDL file.
Please any help will be appreciated.I have a project delivery.
Thanks

AIR4 Mac store submission: Deprecated API

I just tried to submit my app to the Mac store (following the known steps).
Got this error back:
Deprecated API Usage - Apple no longer accepts submissions of apps that use QuickTime APIs.
I realize not many devs care about the Mac store, but are there any plans for a workaround?

Well thats not good news at all
I really thought the QuickTime API rejection was part of the WebKit.dylib issue as I thought that was the verbage when I first failed to remove it, but Apple removes all Resolution Center messages from past binary submissions so I can't even check that.
Ironically Chris Campbell even recently asked for samples of MAS AIR apps:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1386194
What AIR SDK version are you using for this submittal and are you using any ANEs as part of the app?
I know the recent AIR 4 beta on labs is all about meeting Apple's new iOS XCode 5 February 1st requirements, but I wonder if there is anything in this update that also forces any new compatibility with the MAS as well.
Only other place QuickTime API rejections come up on a Google search is for somone using a third party developer framework:
https://forum.xojo.com/7307-submiting-to-mac-app-store-and-getting-quicktime-api-error/100
Otherwise this is a pretty serious problem if the raw Mac AIR runtimes are facing new rejection issues for the MAS, my existing app on the MAS isn't due for a new update just yet so I won't know myself for a little while whether this is a new change for MAS when I go to update it.

The methods you used to instantiate your new dates has been deprecated and should no longer be used. This is just a warning though and your code will still work. Sun is just telling you that they no longer support those constructors for the Date class and that future releases of J2SE may not have them included in the API. If you wanted to, you could ignore it, or you could use the sample code instead for your Date creations:
//need the following additional import
import java.text.*;
//HH is hours (0-23) see SimpleDateFormat for others
DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss");
Date start= formatter.parse("06/02/2003 15:00:00");
Date end = formatter.parse("06/02/2003 16:00:00");tajenkins

Having problems linking two java classes getting a "deprecated API" error??

Hi,
I am tryin to link one page to another in my program, however i get the followin msg:-
Project\alphaSound.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details.
Process completed.
this only happens when i add the bold piece of code to the class; even though the italic piece of code does take you to a new page?:-
public class alphaSound extends JPanel implements ActionListener
{static JFrame f = new JFrame("AlphaSound");
public alphaSound() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
             Object source = event.getSource();
else if(source == vowel)
{ Vowelm vm = new Vowelm();
vm.setSize(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize());
vm.show();
f.dispose();
else if(source == back)
{ MainPage main = new MainPage();
main.setSize(400,300);
main.show();
f.dispose();}
public static void main(String s[]) {
        WindowListener l = new WindowAdapter() {
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {System.exit(0);}
        //JFrame f = new JFrame("AlphaSound");
        f.addWindowListener(l);
        f.getContentPane().add(new alphaSound());
        f.setSize(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize());
        f.show();
}here is the class its tryin to call
public class Vowelm extends JPanel implements ActionListener
{static JFrame v = new JFrame("VowelSound");
   public Vowelm() {
                                               ..etc...
public static void main(String s[]) {
        WindowListener l = new WindowAdapter() {
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {System.exit(0);}
        //JFrame f = new JFrame("VowelSound");
        v.addWindowListener(l);
        v.getContentPane().add(new VowelmSound());
        v.setSize(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize());
        v.show();
}Im pretty sure ther is some conflict between the two classes due to the way they are called and designed?
Hope you can help!
Kind Regards
Raj

You may want to check your show() calls and see if
they can be replaced with setVisible(). Forexample,
in your Vowelm code, you have a static JFrame v.
At
the end of your main function, you use v.show().As
of JDK1.1, this has been deprecated in favour of
setVisible(boolean).hey show() in JFrame is from Window and in windowits
not deprecated ..
show is not decrecated thats for sure ... i dontknow
y you said that ...
you can look in docs as well..
True - but this in turn overrides show() from
java.awt.Component, which has been deprecated. My
guess is that's where the problem comes from.
Thanks for the Dukes!
FlicAnd then again - perhaps not. After looking into this a bit more, I take back my last comment about the Component override. However, as I said in my original reply, compiling with -deprecation should tell you which show() call is flagging the error. There is definitely one somewhere that the JVM doesn't like - without seeing your complete code, it's hard to say exactly where. Based on what you've posted, my guess is that it is within the Vowelm class.
Next time, I'll try to avoid 'shooting from the hip'.
Again, thanks for the Dukes,
Flic
