Deprecated Methods

Method and Description
org.openide.util.RequestProcessor.createRequest(Runnable) Sharing of one singlethreaded RequestProcessor among different users and posting even blocking requests is inherently deadlock-prone. See use cases.

org.openide.util.NbBundle.getLocalizedFile(String, String) Use the nbresloc URL protocol instead. This method does a poor job of handling resources such as /some.dir/res.txt or /some/res.txt.sample.
org.openide.util.NbBundle.getLocalizedFile(String, String, Locale) Use the nbresloc URL protocol instead. This method does a poor job of handling resources such as /some.dir/res.txt or /some/res.txt.sample.
org.openide.util.NbBundle.getLocalizedFile(String, String, Locale, ClassLoader) Use the nbresloc URL protocol instead. This method does a poor job of handling resources such as /some.dir/res.txt or /some/res.txt.sample.
org.openide.util.RequestProcessor.postRequest(Runnable) Sharing of one singlethreaded RequestProcessor among different users and posting even blocking requests is inherently deadlock-prone. See use cases.
org.openide.util.RequestProcessor.postRequest(Runnable, int) Sharing of one singlethreaded RequestProcessor among different users and posting even blocking requests is inherently deadlock-prone. See use cases.
org.openide.util.RequestProcessor.postRequest(Runnable, int, int) Sharing of one singlethreaded RequestProcessor among different users and posting even blocking requests is inherently deadlock-prone. See use cases.
org.openide.util.NbBundle.setClassLoaderFinder(NbBundle.ClassLoaderFinder) Useless.

Deprecated Constructors

Constructor and Description
org.openide.util.io.FoldingIOException(Throwable) Better to create a new IOException and use its Throwable.initCause(java.lang.Throwable) method.
