Deprecated Interfaces

Interface and Description
com.google.common.io.InputSupplier For InputSupplier<? extends InputStream>, use ByteSource instead. For InputSupplier<? extends Reader>, use CharSource. Implementations of InputSupplier that don't fall into one of those categories do not benefit from any of the methods in common.io and should use a different interface. This interface is scheduled for removal in December 2015.
com.google.common.io.OutputSupplier For OutputSupplier<? extends OutputStream>, use ByteSink instead. For OutputSupplier<? extends Writer>, use CharSink. Implementations of OutputSupplier that don't fall into one of those categories do not benefit from any of the methods in common.io and should use a different interface. This interface is scheduled for removal in December 2015.

Deprecated Classes

Class and Description
com.google.common.base.Objects.ToStringHelper Use MoreObjects.ToStringHelper instead. This class is scheduled for removal in June 2016.
