    Description

      Summary

      Mark the deprecated netscape.javascript.JSObject::getWindow method with "forRemoval=true".

      Problem

      The JSObject::getWindow method has been deprecated since JDK 9. With the removal of Java Plugin, there is no longer a useful way to use this method. We would like to remove it in a future release to remove the dependency from the jdk.jsobject module on the java.desktop module.

      Solution

      Add "forRemoval=true" to the existing @Deprecated annotation of netscape.javascript.JSObject::getWindow.
