java.lang.ref.PhantomReference @since 1.2

JDK-6417205 may help with the resource issues that can arise when mapped byte buffers are not unmapped in a timely manner.  Libraries accessing sun.misc.Cleaner have to be fixed as direct byte buffer no longer uses sun.misc.Cleaner class; instead jdk.internal.misc.Cleaner.

See JDK-6685587 and JDK-4724038

sun.misc.Unsafe consists of a number of use cases.  The following features are identified to provide support in the future releases:

• JEP 193: Enhanced Volatile
• JEP 187: Serialization 2.0

• JEP 189: Shenandoah:Low-Pause GC
• Arrays 2.0

where NAME is the security provider name such as "SUN", "SunJCE".

java.security.Policy.getInstance("JavaPolicy", new java.security.URIParameter(uri)); @since 1.6

Instead of doing:

if (c.getPeer() != null)  { .. }

could be replaced with:

   if (c.isDisplayable())  { ... } 

To test if a component has a LightweightPeer, use:

public boolean isLightweight() ; @since 1.2

To obtain the color model of the component comes from the peer, instead of doing:

      getPanel().getPeer().getColorModel()

could be replaced with:

    public ColorModel getColorModel();

java.awt.peer.* and java.awt.dnd.peer.* types are encapsulated.

API reference to java.awt.peer.* and java.awt.dnd.peer.* types are removed in JDK 9.  See  JDK-8037739 and awt-dev discussion
