How to deprecated a method in a class?

[RC]

I would like to deprecated some methods in my
class. So next time when people use those methods,
they will get the warning messages during compiling.

If you know how, please let me know.
Thank Q very much in advance!

If you are using Java 5, things are slightly different since the
introduction of the @Deprecated annotation.
