Actually, every IDE warns you if you try to use a deprecated method. They show as strikethrough in your source too.

There are things like http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/deprecated-list.htm... and IDE's know about this.

Problem is Sun^W Oracle hardly ever depreciates anything. There are 21 classes in that list (7 in java.*), out of a total of almost 4000 as of java 7.
