Changes requested by aivanov (Reviewer).

src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/plaf/basic/BasicSliderUI.java line 154:

> 152:      * Constructs a {@code BasicSliderUI}.

Suggestion:

     * @deprecated This constructor was exposed erroneously and will be removed in a future release.
     *             Use {@link #BasicSliderUI(JSlider)} instead.


I agree, _“in a future release”_ or _“version”_ would be more accurate.

I verified that it builds with the parameter name, however, it's more common to omit parameter names.
