> The Signature modeling in the ClassFile API is missing some validations required by JVMS, notably identifier character restrictions and void type restrictions. In addition, the model currently uses `ClassDesc` to indicate a simple name for an inner class signature, which is incorrect, and this patch proposes to deprecate that API for removal.
