Hello,
As part of cleaning up the deprecation facility in 9, please review
this change to document when a @Deprecated annotation is a no-op:
6481080 : (ann) @Deprecated annotation has no effect on packages
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~darcy/6481080.0/
Since the @Deprecated feature was added in 5, it was a no-op on local
variables, parameters, and packages. The JLS documented the no-op
situation for local variables and parameters; separately, Alex will
handle updating the JLS in 9 to state packages are a no-op too.
Patch to java.lang.Deprecated below; the patch also fixes a typo in
the JLS section number.
This looks okay to me too.
