> o.a.h.io.UTF8 is deprecated but is still used in multiple places. FSEditLog.java has 40 UTF8 related warnings. I don't think it is feasible to avoid using UTF8 in FSEditLog.java. 
> Two options to get rid of these warnings :
>   1. use @SupressWarnings at each use of UTF or for enclosing class.
>   2. define a wrapper class {{DeprecatedUTF8}} that is not {{@deprecated}}. 
> I prefer the second option in this case since it keeps FSEditLog.java and other places clean and still makes it explicit that a deprecated class is used.
> This is part of spring cleaning effort to remove warnings in javac. I will attach a patch for the second option.
