Wiki Markup
Never use deprecated fields, methods, or classes in new code. The Java SE 6 documentation provides a [complete list|http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/deprecated-list.html] of deprecated APIs \[[API 2006|AA. Bibliography#APIReferences#API 06]\]. Java also provides a {{@deprecated}} annotation to indicate the deprecation of specific fields, methods, and classes.  For instance, many methods of {{java.util.Date}}, such as {{Date.getYear()}}, have been explicitly deprecated.  Rule [THI05-J. Do not use Thread.stop() to terminate threads] describes issues that can result from using the deprecated {{Thread.stop()}} method.

Wiki Markup
Obsolete fields, methods, and classes should not be used.  Java lacks any annotation that indicates obsolescence; nevertheless, several classes and methods are documented as obsolete. For instance, the {{java.util.Dictionary}} class is marked as obsolete; new code should use {{java.util.Map<K,V>}} instead \[[API 2006|AA. Bibliography#APIReferences#API 06]\].
