Do you want to annotate the method with @Deprecated to make it clear and also users of this internal API will get compiler warning? FWIW. When compiled with javac with module system integrated, they will get compilation error anyway. Since the javadoc has @deprecated, annotating with @Deprecated makes it clear. Mandy
