The API has been deprecated since 1.4. The plan is to mark it for removal in JDK 10 and remove it in a subsequent release.
Comments
These APIs were originally marked for removal in JDK 9 but the change was backed out before 9 was released because some external projects needed more time to remove the dependencies. Marking them for removal is being re-targeted to JDK 10.
