Summary

Deprecate for removal com.sun.awt.SecurityWarning.

Problem

The client code has an internal "com.sun.awt.SecurityWarning" class which at some point in the past, JDK 6u10, was used as a kind of "public" API. Starting jdk9 this class is accessible at runtime, but is NOT accessible at compile time or when the option "--illegal-access=deny" is specified.

Solution

The solutions is to deprecate this APi in jdk10 and remove later.
