There's no way to see in the API specification which methods or fields in
java.beans.Introspector exist since Java2, and which are available in
Java-1.1.8 or earlier version.
The java.beans package docs seems to contain no @since tags at all.

E.g.:
java.beans.Introspector.getBeanInfo(Class, int) must have been introduced in
Java2, since it is not available in Java-1.1.8.
But there's no "Since: 1.2" in the documentation, no hint at all. You have to
compare a pre-Java2 API specification with a newer one, method by method.

The same applies to Introspector.IGNORE_ALL_BEAN_INFO and
Introspector.flushFromCaches(Class), for example.
