> Please review this PR which suggests to deprecate the unused class `java.util.zip.ZipError` for removal.
>
> The class has been unsed by OpenJDK since the ZIP API was rewritten from native to Java in JDK 9.
>
> I opted to not explain the reason for the deprecation in detail, but instead simply point to `ZipException` as an alternative. Should more explanation be desired, I could prepend that with a note saying that the class is unused since JDK 9.
>
> A CSR for this API update has been drafted, I'll update the Specification section there once we reach a concensus on the deprecation note in this PR.
>
> This deprecation was initially suggested here: https://mail.openjdk.org/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2024-June/125720.html
Eirik Bjørsnøs has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision:
Extend the deprecation note to mention that the error became obsolete in JDK 9 and to mention that code may be updated to catch the super class InternalError
