Description
Currently only the @deprecated javadoc tag is used to indicate deprecation, but it is not guaranteed to issue a compiler warning in client code, though the sun java compiler does it. To fix it we can just add the @Deprecate annotation additional which is specified to issue a compiler warning and is supported since java 1.5.
I suggest that we use the eclipse code clean up tool to do it once for all code in our repository.
