BouncingLines.java uses or overrides a deprecated API

[kirbz]

What if the Java error says:

Note: BouncingLines.j ava uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -deprecation for details.

What does it means?

It means that some of the methods that you're using in the program is deprecated in the Java API you're using. Try to compile and run your program using old Java API, e.g. if you're using JDK1.5 then try your program on JDK1.2, or lower versions.
