In my java program, I have imported some java packages in one class. but in there 1 or 2 packages were crossed out.
Why that happened? How to solve this cross out to make uncrossed?

Those classes are marked as @Deprecated
.
This means that the compiler advises not to use them, because they can bring you problems.
A program element annotated @Deprecated is one that programmers are discouraged from using, typically because it is dangerous, or because a better alternative exists. Compilers warn when a deprecated program element is used or overridden in non-deprecated code.
Check the javadoc(s) of the deprecated classes to check which classes to use instead.
For the sake of completeness, there is a special case which looks like this in Eclipse:
In the case above there exist three is()
methods, which all are statically imported. Hoovering the crossed out method name doesn't give any information, and there isn't a warning marker like there is for @Deprecated
classes. In other words, it can be tricky to understand what it means.
In this case, one of the is()
methods is @Deprecated
, causing the behaviour.
This behaviour was discussed here, a question which was closed as a duplicate.
