@Deprecated(since="24", forRemoval=true) public final class AWTPermission extends BasicPermission
Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version.
There is no replacement for this class.
This class is for AWT permissions. An `AWTPermission` contains a target name but no actions list; you either have the named permission or you don't.

API Note:
  This permission cannot be used for controlling access to resources as the Security Manager is no longer supported. Consequently this class is deprecated for removal in a future release.
