Re: javax.servlet.Servlet.Request has been deprecated message

Saw this in Jason Hunter's "Java Servlet Programming" book p.84:

"The getParameter( ) method was deprecated in the Java Web Server 1.1 in
favor of getParameterValues( ).  However, after quite a lot of public
protest, Sun took getParameter( ) off the deprecation list in the final
release of Servlet API 2.0. It was the first Java method to be
undeprecated!"

Hi

Can someone tell me why I get this message?

RunSqlStatement.java:20: Note: The method
  java.lang.String getParameter(java.lang.String)
  in interface javax.servlet.ServletRequest
  has been deprecated.
    String sqlStatement = request.getParameter("sqlStatement");

I checked the documentation at http://www.javasoft.com . It doesn't
say the request.getParameter is deprecated.


Thanx, PLA
