  11. * This is a backwards compatibility class to allow Java Beans that
  12. * were developed under JDK 1.0.2 to run correctly under JDK 1.1
  13. * <p>
  14. * To allow beans development under JDK 1.0.2, JavaSoft delivered three
  15. * no-op interfaces/classes (sunw.io.Serializable, sunw.util.EventObject
  16. * and sunw.util.EventListener) that could be downloaded into JDK 1.0.2
  17. * systems and which would act as placeholders for the real JDK 1.1
  18. * classes.
  19. * <p>
  20. * Now under JDK 1.1 we provide versions of these classes and interfaces
  21. * that inherit from the real version in java.util and java.io. These
  22. * mean that beans developed under JDK 1.0.2 against the sunw.* classes
  23. * will now continue to work on JDK 1.1 and will (indirectly) inherit
  24. * from the appropriate java.* interfaces/classes.
  25. *
  26. * @deprecated This is a compatibility type to allow Java Beans that
  27. * were developed under JDK 1.0.2 to run correctly under JDK 1.1. The
  28. * corresponding JDK1.1 type is java.io.Serializable
  29. *
  30. * @see java.io.Serializable
